Economic Week Ahead: October 27-31

The week ahead will see central banks commanding the spotlight as the Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, Bank of Japan, and Bank of England weigh in on both interest rates and the balance of economic risks. 

All eyes will be on the Federal Open Market Committee, which is widely expected to deliver another 25bps rate cut on Wednesday. Given cooler-than-expected September CPI data, odds are rising that the Fed will cut rates for a third time this year in December as well.
