Treasuries are little changed following a quiet overnight session, and the news cycle was relatively uneventful this weekend from a market perspective. The headline event for this week is Wednesday’s FOMC meeting, which could include forward guidance enhancement in the wake of the recent policy framework changes. Fed Chair Powell is also likely to once again highlight the importance of additional fiscal support as Congress struggles to agree on another round of spending. August retail sales data will also be released on Wednesday, and market participants will continue to pay close attention to the weekly jobless claims data on Thursday.
