The Federal Reserve goes into its pre-FOMC blackout on Saturday but before then, there will be a steady stream of chatter from some of the policymakers.
Monday:

Tuesday:
- Dudley
- Powell's confirmation hearing
- Harker
Wednesday:
- Dudley
- Yellen in Congress
- Williams
- Beige Book
Thursday

The market remains ultra-confident in a December hike but is getting jitters about a pause afterwards.
