Key Quotes:

"Given that any expectations of an interest rate move have now evaporated and that there is no press conference scheduled after the event, there is a great deal hanging on the accompanying statement, which we think will likely be more downbeat than that issued in September in light of recent activity and inflation data, but not sufficiently so to rule out the possibility that the Fed could still begin tightening at the Dec meeting."
