If economic data continue to point to growth and firmer prices, a December rate hike would be a \u201clive possibility,\u201d she said. Speaking in New York hours later, Dudley said he agreed with the chair, but \u201clet\u2019s see what the data shows.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Federal Open Market Committee said in its October statement that it will consider raising interest rates at its \u201cnext meeting,\u201d citing \u201csolid\u201d rates of household spending and business investment. Yellen\u2019s and Dudley\u2019s comments reinforced the idea that next month is in the crosshairs for an increase, and placed the focus on upcoming employment and other economic data.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2015-11-05\/bonds-tumble-around-the-globe-as-fed-rate-odds-climb-past-50-\">market noticed<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Bonds are falling around the world as traders increased odds to more than 50 percent that the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates this year.<\/p>\n<p>Benchmark 10-year Treasury yields climbed to a seven-week high of 2.24 percent on Wednesday after Fed Chair Janet Yellen said policy makers may move as soon as their December meeting.
