The Federal Reserve is in its blackout interval, which suggests no communication from Fed officers on their outlook for financial coverage.

And now this, the likelihood of a 50bp hik has surged. Its common for ‘leaks’ to return although, if the Fed (Powell, or at his instigation) sees one thing change and the necessity to talk, on this case, an even bigger minimize is coming.
The Wall Avenue Journal, specifically Nick Timiraos, is the standard channel.
Tmiraos did write on Thursday:
