Here is the Fed schedule for the week of June 25-30
The past week began with a series of hawkish and optimistic comments from the Fed's Dudley that underscored the continued case for rate hikes and buying the US dollar. Critics continue to fret that the inflation picture doesn't support higher rates.
The battle will continue in the week ahead with a handful of speakers, including the Chair.
Dudley is back on the agenda on Sunday but he's speak in Basel in an event that's closed to the press so don't expect any headlines.
The first comments to cross will come on Monday at 0520 GMT when the Fed's Williams kicks off an Australian tour in Sydney where we will talk about fostering sustainable growth. His next stop is the next day at Macquarie university where he talks about the causes and consequences of soft global growth at 0805 GMT.
Also on Tuesday, the Fed's Harker speaks in London at 1500 GMT. He was a surprise this week as he took a more dovish stance.
The big Fed event is at 1700 GMT on Tuesday when Yellen speaks in London on global economic issues. There is no text but there will be an audience Q&A.
The final Fed event Tuesday is Kashkari at 2130 GMT in Michigan.
Williams' tour continues Wednesday in Canberra where he delivers a speech at 0730 GMT. By that point we should have a very good idea where he stands.
Finally, the week ahead ends on Thursday at 1700 GMT. Bullard will talk then on monetary policy.
