The Fed will hold its policy meeting on Wednesday, with expectations for a rate hike now near zero. What will be important is the language of the statement and Janet Yellen’s press conference.
US data releases pick up again next week, and feature retail sales, inventories, industrial production, inflation, housing sentiment and starts and the Empire State and Philly Fed activity indices. Friday is a quadruple witching expiry of equity derivatives.
