TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS
The Federal Reserve is widely expected to raise rates on Thursday, even though rate hikes are unusual when stock markets are in a downward spiral. The Fed may “compensate” the markets and try to soothe nervous investors by sending out a cautious message about further tightening next year. Such a move would likely boost global stock markets, which posted sharp losses in early December, after hawkish remarks from Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Investors will be combing through the rate statement, which should be considered a market-mover..
