Monetary policy and the federal funds futures market

John Carlson () and Jean M. McIntire

Economic Commentary, 1995, issue Jul

Abstract: How well did the federal funds futures market anticipate recent monetary policy actions? The authors examine the predictive content of fed funds futures rates, which provide the Federal Open Market Committee with a clear reading of market expectations for policy, in the context of 1994 policy moves and analyze the fed funds futures market outlook in early 1995.
