Ahead of next week's Fed decision, we've published our summary of FOMC participant communications since the December FOMC meeting, including analysis of the latest Beige Book and MNI's Hawk-Dove Matrix. 

  • Fed speakers since the December FOMC meeting have unanimously backed a more patient approach to rate cuts than foreseen just a few months earlier.
  • No FOMC member expressed a preference for another rate cut in January, given an apparent reduction in downside risks to the labor market and some signs of stalling disinflation - with few to no signals of future cut timing.
