On the 27th, global financial markets entered a much-anticipated “super central bank week.” The Federal Reserve, European Central Bank and Bank of Japan will announce their rate decisions in succession from the early hours of October 29 through October 30, Beijing time. Goldman Sachs expects the Fed to leave interest rates unchanged at this week’s policy meeting, but to raise them at its December meeting—the Fed’s final policy meeting of the year. Goldman Sachs also believes the Fed will offer no major new signals in its policy statement or at the press conference following this week’s meeting.
