FED’s minutes a major weekly event

The Federal Reserve’s meeting minutes release will highly likely derive the outcome on whether the U.S. will be able to decide appropriately on future rate hikes for 2016.

U.S. next rates hike after FED’s minutes release

U.S.'s next rate hike will be decided, most probably, after FED's March policy meeting minutes release, an announcement that is expected to capture the investors' interest.

Can the nation withstand additional rate hikes this year? The investors will be looking to the U.S.’s inflation data release too.
