Source Fxstreet
55 of 82 economists polled by Reuters think that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will keep the policy rate unchanged at the 3.5%-3.75% range at least until September.
65 out of 82 economists expect the Fed to cut the policy rate once or twice this year.
"The Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) index - the Fed's preferred inflation measure - is expected to rise an annual 3.3%, 3.1% and 2.9% in the second, third and fourth quarters, respectively, broadly 50 basis points higher than forecasts from just two weeks ago," Reuters said.
