the March 19-20 FOMC policy meeting is expected to leave policy rates unchanged. Also, the Fed will release its quarterly forecast at the same time as the statement. The policy statement is released at 2:00 p.m. ET after the conclusion of every FOMC meeting regardless of whether there are forecasts or not. As of March 20, 2013, the press briefing is held at 2:30 p.m. ET on the days of FOMC statements in which quarterly projections are released. These FOMC statement dates are designated as the ones released in the final month of each quarter--March, June, September, and December.
