A midday look ahead in preparation for economic reports and events scheduled for the next trading day.
Highlights: Wednesday morning’s calendar is busy, and also both high-profile and influential. But the highlight is the afternoon’s FOMC events, with its long-awaited rate hike AND the year’s final quarterly Q&A with Fed chair Yellen — both reliable opportunistic with volatility and multiple sizable moves.
