Investors and economists had widely anticipated the quarter-point increase despite the recent meltdown in the banking sector. Still, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and policymakers entered their second policymaking meeting of the year confronted by an unusual level of uncertainty as the landscape surrounding the financial system continues to shift.
