Checker prints `ok`. artifacts/answer.json is complete: FOMC's Sept 16, 2026 statement set the target range upper bound at 4.00% (400 basis points), per federalreserve.gov, corroborated by CNBC.
The upper bound was **400 basis points** (4%). The answer and Federal Reserve source are recorded in [artifacts/answer.json](/home/worker/.identitymd/work/4f88ce86-e704-4ec3-80d4-e0b94054abf8/c29fd447-53cc-48a3-9bdd-78927151c17d/artifacts/answer.json). The required checker printed `ok`.

The [Federal Reserve’s FOMC statement](https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/monetary20260916a.htm) confirms the target range was 3¾% to 4%. The required checker printed `ok`.
The FOMC set the upper bound at 4%, or **400 basis points**. I recorded the official Federal Reserve statement as the source in [artifacts/answer.json](/root/.identitymd/work/4f88ce86-e704-4ec3-80d4-e0b94054abf8/c29fd447-53cc-48a3-9bdd-78927151c17d/artifacts/answer.json). The checker printed `ok`.
The FOMC set the upper bound of the federal funds target range at 400 basis points, and `artifacts/answer.json` is written with that answer. `check-answer.mjs` prints ok for it. The Federal Reserve's own press release for 16 September 2026 says the Committee raised the target range by 1/4 percentage point to 3-3/4 to 4 percent. I read that release, and a web search gave the same figures. The recipe is `panel` with that release as the source. The checker first rejected the file because the `window` keys were in a different order from `oracle.json`. I reordered them to match, and the request id, chain and window are copied exactly.

Checker passes. The FOMC raised its target range by 25bp to 3.75%–4.00% at the September 16, 2026 meeting (Federal Reserve official press release), so the upper bound = 400 basis points, recorded in `artifacts/answer.json`.
The answer is 400 basis points, and `artifacts/answer.json` is written; `check-answer.mjs` prints `ok` for it. The Federal Reserve Board's FOMC statement of 16 September 2026 says the Committee raised the target range by 1/4 percentage point to 3-3/4 to 4 percent. That puts the upper bound at 4%, or 400 basis points. I read the statement page itself at federalreserve.gov, after a web search surfaced it. The recipe is kind `panel` with that page as the source. The window is copied exactly from `.imd/reads/oracle.json`, which meant matching its key order (`toBlock` first) to get past the checker.

The source is on the Fed's site: https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/monetary20260916a.htm Two details of the file: - The recipe kind is `panel`, with that Fed URL as the source. - The checker rejected the window until I reordered its keys to `toBlock`, `fromBlock`, `toBlockHash`, the order in `oracle.json`.

The FOMC set the upper bound at **400 basis points (4%)**, according to the [Federal Reserve’s September 16 statement](https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/monetary20260916a.htm).

The answer is 400: the FOMC set the upper bound of the federal funds target range at 4 percent, which is 400 basis points. The checker prints ok for `artifacts/answer.json`. The Federal Reserve Board's statement of 16 September 2026 says the Committee "decided to raise the target range for the federal funds rate by 1/4 percentage point to 3-3/4 to 4 percent." I read the statement itself and also saw the figure in search results from Advisor Perspectives and J.P. Morgan Asset Management. I did not open those two pages, so the Fed statement is the source I actually read and named in the answer. The file uses the `panel` recipe with the Fed statement as its source. The first version failed the checker because the window keys were in the wrong order; I reordered them to match `oracle.json`. Sources: - [Federal Reserve Board – FOMC statement, 16 September 2026](https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/monetary20260916a.htm) - [Advisor Perspectives – Fed's Interest Rate Decision: September 16, 2026](https://www.advisorperspectives.com/dshort/updates/2026/09/16/feds-interest-rate-decision-september-16-2026) - [J.P.

The answer is 400 basis points. At its 16 September 2026 meeting the FOMC raised the target range by 25 basis points to 3.75%–4.00%, so the upper bound is 4.00%. I read the Federal Reserve's own FOMC statement for that date (federalreserve.gov, `monetary20260916a.htm`). A web search turned up CNBC and other outlets reporting the same range. `artifacts/answer.json` is written as a "panel" recipe with the Fed statement as the source. `check-answer.mjs` prints `ok`. It first rejected the file because the window keys were in a different order than `oracle.json`, and I reordered them to match.
Checker prints `ok`. Answer: upper bound 4.00% = 400 basis points, per CNBC's Sept 16, 2026 report (corroborated by Raisin), written to `artifacts/answer.json`.

`artifacts/answer.json` is written and the checker prints `ok`. The answer is **400**: the FOMC's target range after the 16 September 2026 meeting is 3-3/4 to 4 percent, so the upper bound is 4.00%, or 400 basis points. The FOMC raised the range by a quarter point on a 12–0 vote. I found this through a web search, not by opening the pages. The search results returned the Federal Reserve's own statement and a CNBC report on the decision. The recipe is `panel`, citing the Federal Reserve statement at https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/monetary20260916a.htm. The `notes` field also names the CNBC page (https://www.cnbc.com/2026/09/16/fed-rate-decision-september-2026.html) as corroboration. The request id, chain and window are copied from `.imd/reads/oracle.json`. The checker required the window keys in the order `toBlock`, `fromBlock`, `toBlockHash`, so the file uses that order.

The FOMC set the upper bound of the federal funds target range at 4.00%, which is **400** basis points. I wrote 400 to `artifacts/answer.json`, and `check-answer.mjs` prints ok for it. At the 16 September 2026 meeting the FOMC raised the target range by 1/4 percentage point to 3-3/4 to 4 percent. I read that in the [Federal Reserve press release](https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/monetary20260916a.htm). A web search matched it, including [CNBC's report](https://www.cnbc.com/2026/09/16/fed-rate-decision-september-2026.html) of rates rising to 3.75%–4%.

I read this in the Federal Reserve's own statement, https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/monetary20260916a.htm. That URL is the `source` in the file's `panel` recipe. The request id, chain and window are copied from `oracle.json`. The checker first rejected the window because its keys were in a different order from the brief, and reordering them fixed that.
The answer is 400 basis points. The Federal Reserve's FOMC statement of 16 September 2026 says the Committee raised the target range by 1/4 percentage point to 3-3/4 to 4 percent, so the upper bound is 4%. I read that statement on the Federal Reserve's site, and the checker printed `ok` for `artifacts/answer.json`. The file uses the `panel` recipe with the statement URL as the source. The request id, chain and window are copied from `.imd/reads/oracle.json`. I didn't confirm the figure against a second source. It came from the Fed statement, and a web search that returned other pages agreed with it.
The FOMC set the upper bound at **400 basis points**. The Federal Reserve’s September 16, 2026 statement reports a target range of 3¾% to 4%.

I took the figure from the web-search summary of it, which matched the summaries of other outlets (J.P. Morgan Asset Management, Advisor Perspectives, TD Economics). The `notes` field says the same.

The figure comes from a web-search summary of it, and the same search returned a CNBC headline giving the same 3.75%–4% range. I did not run a chain scan, since this is a panel-evidence question. The window is copied exactly from `oracle.json`.
I wrote `artifacts/answer.json` with an answer of 400 (the upper bound of the target range in basis points), and the checker prints `ok`. The source is the Federal Reserve's FOMC statement of 16 September 2026, which I read at federalreserve.gov. It says the Committee decided to raise the target range by 1/4 percentage point to 3-3/4 to 4 percent, so the upper bound is 4.00%. I read only this one source, and the page came back through a summarising fetch rather than as raw text. The file uses recipe kind `panel`, with that press-release URL as the source. The first checker run failed because `window` had its keys in a different order from `oracle.json`. I reordered them to match, and the second run passed.
