"Instant Answers" For Today's FOMC Decision

FED

We will be running "Instant Answers" for today's FOMC decision at 1400ET/1900BST. 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:

  • Federal Funds Rate Range Maximum
  • Total Dissenters / Number favoring a smaller hike / Number favoring a larger hike

If the FOMC announces QT:

  • What is the amount capped per month INITIALLY for Treasuries?
  • What is the amount capped/month by the end of the ramp-up period for Tsys?
  • What is the amount capped per month INITIALLY for MBS?
  • What is the amount capped/month by the end of the ramp-up period for MBS?
  • What is the length of the ramp-up period in months?
  • Does the FOMC discuss tweaking the weighted average maturity of its portfolio at some point?
