There are not any audio system from the US Federal Reserve due as we speak, FOMC Blackout interval

The ‘blackout’ coverage from the Federal Reserve limits the extent to which Federal Open Market Committee individuals and workers can converse publicly or grant interviews. The interval begins the 2 Saturdays previous a Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) assembly and ends the Thursday following the choice (choices are at all times on Wednesdays).

Oftentimes, Federal Reserve officers will scheduled vital speeches simply earlier than the blackout interval begins with the intention to information market individuals in regards to the upcoming assembly. Normally, the Fed does not prefer to shock markets so officers will provide robust hints about what’s coming. If prime Fed officers want to regulate market expectations between the beginning of the blackout and the choice, they could leak hints to the press; typically the Wall Road Journal.
