USD/SGD Steady Ahead of FOMC Decision -- Market Talk

Dow Jones03-20

0402 GMT - USD/SGD is trading steadily during the Asian session ahead of the FOMC decision due later in the day. The Fed's dot plot will likely be a major focus, as markets are now pricing in around 72 bps of rate cuts by end-2024, slightly less than the three cuts the dot plot released in December had guided for, Maybank analysts say in a foreign-exchange research and strategy report. However, USD could weaken should the Fed's guidance be largely unchanged at three rate cuts, they add. USD/SGD is little changed at 1.3422. (ronnie.harui@wsj.com)
