First, the weekly initial jobless claims report will be released at 8:30 a.m. Eastern, with bond bulls hoping that the forecast increase to 220,000 from last time\u2019s 217,000 indicates a less robust labor market that will help suppress wage inflation.<\/p>\n<p>Then at 1 p.m. the Treasury will auction $24 billion of 30-year bonds.

Goolsbee said in an interview with the Wall Street Journal that long rates, more than short rates, can have a \u201cvery substantial effect\u201d on the economy.<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of Thursday\u2019s potential catalysts, markets are pricing in a 91 probability that the Fed will leave interest rates unchanged at a range of 5.25% to 5.50% after its next meeting on December 13th, according to the CME FedWatch tool.<\/p>\n<p>The chances of a 25 basis point rate hike to a range of 5.50 to 5.75% at the subsequent meeting at the end of January is priced at 18%.
