Fed gradualism, AI uncertainty, and firmer dollar ahead of ECB's likely hold decision.

Key numbers: ECB decision at 9:15 am ET; dollar firmer versus most G10 currencies.
Why it matters: Fed Chair Warsh repeatedly noted tightening financial conditions since the September rate hike, and the Fed meeting appears to minimize the importance of today's US data for market participants.
