A lot of news to share with you this morning.
All eyes on the Fed today with the results on interest rates to be revealed at 2pm ET. The street expecting a .25 basis rate hike. The CME Watch tool has the odds of a rate hike at 90.8 percent this morning. All will be listening to the Chairwoman’s comments at the press conference after the announcement. Her view on the economy and how many more rate hikes she expects this year are on the minds of all traders and investors.
It would be interesting to hear if there were any voting Fed members who wanted to raise rates 50 basis points at this meeting to show the world they are ahead of the curve. Any surprises will have a profound effect on all the global markets.
