"Instant Answers" For Today's FOMC Decision

FED

We will be running "Instant Answers" for today's FOMC decision at 1400ET. We'll publish the answers to these questions on our website Bullets and Bloomberg Bullets Feeds (e.g. MNBP2) shortly after the Fed decision is released. The questions that we have selected for this meeting are:

  • Changes to Fed Funds / Interest Rate Paid on Excess Reserves (IOER) / ON RRP?
  • Does the Fed announce changes to asset purchases (size, duration, and/or Tsy vs MBS?)
  • Median projection of Fed funds at the end of 2022/2023/2024/Long Run?
  • How many 2022 and 2023 dots are above 0.125%?
  • Does the FOMC change the sentence "Since then, the economy has made progress toward these goals, and the Committee will continue to assess progress in coming meetings"?
  • Does the FOMC say it expects to meet "substantial further progress" "this year" or "soon/relatively soon" if the economy evolves as expected?
  • Does the FOMC give any details of its tapering plan?
  • Any dissents to the decision?
