The Federal Reserve System is the United States' central banking network that acts like a bank for banks and a thermostat for the economy: it sets short-term interest rates, supplies or withdraws money, and oversees financial stability. Investors watch its decisions because changes in interest rates and liquidity affect borrowing costs, company profits, bond yields and overall market sentiment—similar to how a building's thermostat influences comfort and energy use.
