Fed may keep rates steady at FOMC

Gregory Daco said he expects the Federal Reserve will keep its federal funds rate target range unchanged at 3.75% to 4.00% at the upcoming FOMC meeting.

He added that the following press conference will require a delicate balancing exercise.

Daco has recently highlighted how shifts in sovereign debt supply and demand are affecting financial markets. He also reported that pending sales of existing U.S. homes fell to a record low in September due to elevated mortgage rates. These observations come as the market looks to forthcoming Fed commentary for further signals.
