"The all important FOMC and BoJ meetings get underway today. Markets are expecting no rate increases from Fed, but the statements accompanying the policy will be keenly analysed."
"USD/INR currency pair has been stuck in a very narrow range. Expect the pair to trade in a range of 66.80-67.10/dollar ahead of FOMC,"
Global markets have been blowing hot and cold in recent weeks over the Fed's intentions, not helped by both hawkish and dovish comments from several Fed officials over this period. The consensus is that the Fed will leave interest rates unchanged at the end of its two-day meeting, with investors focusing on the statement as well as Chair Janet Yellen's speech for clues on the timing of the central bank's next interest rate increase.
