1413 ET - At the Fed's March meeting, there was an increase in number of officials who wanted to warn markets that the central bank's next move could be a hike, instead of another cut. "Some participants judged that there was a strong case for a two-sided description of the Committee's future interest rate decisions in the postmeeting statement," according to the minutes of the meeting. The minutes of the Fed's previous meeting recorded that "several" participants held that view in January. In the Fed's jargon, a group of "some" officials is larger than a group of "several."
