After the excitement at the September meeting, November is going to be relatively less exciting.
This is the last chance for Fedspeak before the pre-November meeting blackout period. This week we mostly heard from the hawkish side of the committee, all of whom are emphasizing a gradual path of rate cuts.
A quiet week of Fedspeak, with Waller and Bostic expressing disappointment in the September inflation data.
