Last week, two Democratic senators urged Powell to not cause unnecessary pain by raising rates too high.</p><h3>Rates</h3><p>Economists overwhelmingly predict the FOMC will raise 75 basis points, though one is looking for a step down to 50 basis points instead. Investors are close to fully pricing in 75 basis points at this Fed meeting, according to interest-rate futures markets.</p><p>The Bank of Canada unexpectedly slowed its pace of interest-rate hikes to a half point last week, though economists noted Canada’s higher share of adjustable-rate mortgages magnify the macroeconomic impact of the central bank’s rate increases.</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ea60d1bee5f8941daa13a7b47003ba36\" tg-width=\"724\" tg-height=\"385\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>FOMC Statement</h3><p>The statement is likely to retain its pledge of “ongoing increases” in interest rates, but that could be “modestly tweaked in some way to indicate that you’re closer to the end” of hikes, said Michael Feroli, chief US economist at JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co.

There will be two employment reports and two consumer-price reports before the Dec. 13-14 meeting.</p><p>“Markets want some indication that the Fed’s going to downshift,” said Drew Matus, chief market strategist with MetLife Investment Management. “This whole point of downshifting and moving to a slower pace of hikes is because you don’t know how much you have to do. So if it’s raining outside and I am driving, I am slowing down.”</p><h3>Dissents</h3><p>About a third of economists expect a dissent at the meeting.
