Wall Street looking at three rate hikes by Fed in 2016: poll

In a Reuters poll on Wednesday of primary dealers that deal directly with the Federal Reserve, 15 of the 21 that responded expect at least three rate increases by the end of the year, which leaves open the possibility of a rate hike as early as March. The Federal Reserve, at the close of its two-day policy meeting on Wednesday, kept interest rates unchanged and said it was "closely monitoring" global economic and financial developments but maintained an otherwise upbeat view of the U.S. economy.
