Markets
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Stock futures were trading down Monday after the S&P 500 booked its fourth week of gains as investors sought clarity about the direction of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy.
Federal Open Market Committee hawks have dominated the conversation in recent weeks, but later this week the bank's chief advisory panel will release a report from its most recent meeting, signalling its broader intentions. P/>"We see two things to watch for: hints of concern that inflation is too low and confirmation that the Fed has the flexibility to increase as well as reduce the pace of QE," Ethan Harris, co-head of Global Economics Research, wrote in a note. "Note that the FOMC minutes also are released and they tend to be a platform for the non-voting hawks to protest against the directive."
