The FOMC releases the tea leaves, uh, minutes, of its latest meeting tomorrow. A slightly weakening dollar and still-high 10-year yields pretty much offset each other.

The moves Middleby initiated back then in response to challenging conditions have taken a lot of effort, but the results haven't been as clear as many would have liked.
