Treasuries are little changed to begin a week packed with central bank decisions.

In addition to the FOMC meeting on Wednesday, five other central banks will be holding policy meetings this week, including Japan and the U.K. For the FOMC meeting, the updated Summary of Economic Projections, including the dot plot, will be the greatest area of focus for financial markets. Beyond the central bank decisions, the economic calendar is relatively light this week, although there will be multiple housing market reports (housing starts and new/existing home sales).
