美联储会议总结 The Fed's forward guidance is in focus as policy will stand pat. The new dot-plot is set to show rates near zero through 2023, reinforcing the message that officials will delay tightening to achieve inflation averaging 2% over time. They've discussed linking rate liftoff to that goal or to unemployment, but it's a close call: 39% of surveyed economists expect it to happen today. Others expect an announcement in 2021 or no change at all. But if there's a lack of detail, the yield curve may steepen further.
