Economists predict that the Fed will only cut interest rates three times next year. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg expect that the Fed will cut interest rates for the third time in a row this month, and lower the expected number of interest rate cuts next year. The market expects Federal Reserve Chairman Powell and his colleagues to cut interest rates by 25 basis points next week. If the expectation is true, it means that interest rates have been lowered by 1 percentage point since September. Next year's interest rate cut will slow down faster than officials expected three months ago. Most economists predict that interest rates will be cut only three times in 2025 because of the small progress in fighting inflation.Twenty-three domestic enterprises in the field of solid-state battery manufacturing have received 73 rounds of financing.
