On May 19, the US Federal Reserve Federal Open Market Committee published its April 27-28 meeting's Meeting Minutes. The central bank released only the protocols of the meeting that described what was discussed and how the decisions previously announced were made. Note that the changes in monetary policy are already in effect.

However, sometimes the Meeting Minutes reveal that the monetary policy could change in the future despite the decisions being made at the meeting and then being announced to the public. This time, the Meeting Minutes revealed that a number of the FOMC members stated that, if the economic recovery continues, a tightening of monetary policy could be enacted.
