U.S. corporate bond update: the new issue market is relatively active today ahead of tomorrow's FOMC, but there hasn't been much fallout in the Treasury market. Note that Korea Development Bank filed for a $3 B mixed securities offering. Mylan is selling $1.15 B in 3- and 5-year notes; a floating rate portion was canceled. Boston Properties upped its initial $500 M 10-year offering to $700 M. Agilent Technologies has a $600 M 10-year. Gerogia Pacific has a benchmark 10-year on tap. |

| 13:40 EDT | | | FOMC has started its meeting
FOMC has started its meeting and will announce its decision tomorrow at 2:00 ET. The markets remain on pins and needles over what will happen to QE, case in point yesterday's volatility amid contradictory media reports (analysts continue to argue, and the FT's Harding also stated, journalists have no inside information, so comments should be taken with a grain of salt). Analysts don't look for any explicit signals on the timing of a pull back in asset purchases, though analysts do think the time is approaching. As all policymakers have indcated, the future course of QE is data dependent. So far analysts don't believe the economic reports have been sufficiently strong to give the dovish "Bernanke block" the confidence needed to start trimming QE yet. Probably of most importance with Wednesday's FOMC actions will be the new forecasts for this year and next, which will provide background on the Fed's outlooks. Analysts suspect the Fed could shave its forecasts on growth and prices for this year, which could suggest QE trimming could be a little farther off than anticipated, though analysts note the September 17, 18 FOMC could be the start, provided data don't disappoint. |

| 13:10 EDT | | | FOMC Forecast revisions
FOMC Forecast revisions from the June FOMC meeting will be released Wednesday (and later in the July 10 FOMC minutes). Analysts expect a lowering of the Fed's near-term GDP and inflation forecasts, with a possible additional downward bump in jobless rate estimates. The mix should give a pessimistic spin to the growth and inflation estimates, and and consequently support expectations that imminent tapering is unlikely. For 2013, the GDP central tendency of 2.3%-2.8% could be lowered by 0.1% to more symmetrically bracket the 2.4% real Q4/Q4 GDP gain that analysts and many others assume, just as the PCE chain price central tendency of 1.3%-1.7% could be trimmed toward our 1.5% estimate. The 1.5%-1.6% PCE core central tendency hugs our 1.5% forecast. The 7.3%-7.5% jobless rate central tendency sits below the last 7.6% figure and brackets our 7.4% Q4 forecast. High-end estimates for 2014 and 2015 for GDP and inflation might also be trimmed. For a table of our assumptions for the Fed's revised forecasts, see our policy outlook page. |
