FED: (1/3): Below are some condensed sell-side previews (in alphabetical order)

for the meeting minutes of the FOMC's decidedly dovish March 19-20 meeting

(released at 1400ET/1800GMT): 

- Barclays: Expect minutes to highlight concerns about downside risks to the

economic outlook, and signal that rates are on hold.

- Deutsche: Minutes to shed light on what sets of conditions compel the Fed to

shift from its decidedly neutral policy stance - in either direction.

- ING: The narrative surrounding the removal of the two projected 2019 hikes may

give clues as to what it may take to deviate from the current `patient` stance.

- Nomura (1): Expect minutes to reinforce message of being `on hold`. May learn

something about how FOMC sees the balance of risks and what it would take to

either lower or raise rates. Expect minutes to reinforce the point that an

acceleration of core inflation is likely to be important for further hikes.

- Nomura(2): We expect the full February survey of senior financial officers to

be released, with clues on minimum reserves and other issues.
