The Federal Reserve on Thursday voted to cut its benchmark interest rate by quarter-percentage point to a range of 4.5%-4.75%. The move follows an outsized half-point cut in September.
The Fed is reducing rates to protect the labor market while keeping inflation on a cooling trend. In a statement, the Fed said it would assess the economic data when considering future easing.
Uncertainty over the path of Fed policy has risen since President-elect Donald Trump's victory on Tuesday.
Traders in the federal funds futures market now see a 33% chance of a pause at the Fed's next meeting in mid-December. Before Election Day, the odds were much smaller.
Diamondback Energy, the largest independent oil and gas producer in the Permian Basin, has warned that the U.S. shale industry may be repeating past mistakes of unsustainable growth. The company plans to limit its own output growth to 2% next year, emphasizing the need for financial discipline over aggressive production expansion.
Diamondback's CFO, Kaesa Van't Hof, cautioned that other companies' focus on lowering break-even costs to justify growth has "gotten this industry in trouble in the past" and may be leading the industry back down a problematic path. The broader shale sector is closely monitored, as rising U.S. production has put pressure on OPEC, leading the cartel to delay a planned production increase. Some producers, such as Matador Resources and ConocoPhillips, have already raised their production guidance, but Diamondback aims to prioritize free cash flow over capital expenditure growth.
