"The date is still being finalized and we don't have that yet done," Sanders said.

WASHINGTON adidas superstar sko tilbud , Jan. 3 (Xinhua) -- U.S. Federal Reserve officialswere divided over the pace of rate hikes in 2018, according to theminutes of the Fed's latest monetary policy meeting.

"Most participants reiterated their support for continuing agradual approach to raising the target range, noting that thisapproach helped to balance risks to the outlook for economicactivity and inflation," said the minutes of the Fed's Dec. 12-13meeting released on Wednesday.

At that meeting, the Fed raised its target range for the federalfunds rate to 1.25-1.5 percent adidas superstar tilbud , the third rate hike of 2017. Fedofficials' medium forecast for the benchmark interest rate alsosignaled that there were three more rate hikes in 2018.

"They noted that financial conditions had not materiallytightened since the removal of monetary policy accommodation began,that continued low interest rates risked financial instability inthe future, or that the labor market was increasingly tight," theminutes said.

The minutes also showed that Fed officials were unsure of theeconomic impact of the 1.5-trillion-U.S. dollar tax cuts packageapproved by Congress last month.

"Many participants judged that the proposed changes in businesstaxes, if enacted Adidas Superstar Slip On Sort Sko Tilbud Danmark , would likely provide a modest boost to capitalspending, although the magnitude of the effects was uncertain," theminutes said.

The Fed will hold its next policy meeting on Jan. 30-31. About66 percent of economists polled by the Wall Street Journal lastmonth expected that the central bank would wait until March toincrease interest rates. Enditem
