Economists surveyed by Financial Times suggest that the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates again not earlier than six months.

Fed's leaders want to wait and see the first steps of the future president of the United States, Donald Trump, the respondents said.

According to economists, the Fed will raise interest rates only twice in the next year, while the dot plot for the December meeting suggested three rate hikes. FT survey participants believe that at the end of 2017 the Fed rate will be located in the target range of 1% to 1.25%.
