The resolution rules clearly specify that an official reduction in the upper bound of the federal funds target rate will trigger resolution, relying on the Federal Reserve's official website as the primary source. However, holders should note the specific observation window: only rate cuts occurring between December 16, 2025, and the conclusion of the December 2026 FOMC meeting count toward a positive resolution. Any interest rate cuts taking place prior to December 16, 2025, will not qualify, which is a key restriction not apparent from the question title alone.
