Fed meet to raise interest rates

WASHINGTON — The Federal Reserve is poised to raise interest rates at its next policymaking meeting in mid-December and to continue raising rates next year, according to the minutes of the central bank’s last meeting published on Thursday.

Doing so would be expected to hold back the funds rate from getting too close to the target ceiling, judging by the funds rate’s tendency to trail behind the IOER rate. Boston Fed President Eric Rosengren, who has a vote on this year’s FOMC, signaled that he wasn’t ready to cut interest rates at the July meeting, urging in a July 19 interview with CNBC that officials let data do the talking. “As long as the economy’s doing well, if that continues,
