The FOMC meeting: any surprises for the USD?
The Federal Open Market Committee will publish its meeting minutes on February 19, at 21:00 MT time.
FOMC Statement
| The Federal Reserve is expected to raise interest rates at least three times this year. The firm economic growth and inflation in the United States give the central bank reasons to increase the interest rate this time. If the Fed raises the rate, it will support the dollar that has been suffering for a long time. On the other hand, the absence of a rate hike will be a big disappointment and lead to a selloff in the USD. The Fed’s decision will be known at 20:00 MT time. Press conference of the Fed’s Chair Jerome Powell will start at 20:30 MT time. |
