US VIEW: Economists at Deutsche Bank eyed the Wed 2pm ET FOMC meeting minutes

from the recent Sept. 19th-20th meeting. "With respect to the FOMC minutes,

inflation will likely be a heavily debated topic, but given the recent Fedspeak,

it appears that most voting members are looking through some of the recent

weakness and prefer to continue the "gradual" removal of monetary

accommodation," they said. 

- "Note that we will hear from several Fed speakers this week: most notably,

voting Chicago Fed President Evans (Wednesday), as well as Fed Governors

Brainard and Powell (Thursday)," they said. "Similar to Brainard, Evans has

recently indicated some hesitation to raising rates in December given the soft

inflation backdrop. Thus, it will be interesting to see if the latest employment

data, particularly the noticeable drop in the unemployment rate, have influenced

their near-term views."
