Janet e035f36361 feat: reuters parser (#78)
* feat: reuters parser

Date parses correctly but fails test because of format discrepancy.

Author tags are nested within the content, which is why the author
names are appearing twice. I wasn’t sure how to address this.

Additionally, the location appears twice, so I cleaned the location
tags from the content.

* test: fix date format

* transform .article-subtitle to h4; cleaning author but leaving location

Reserve raised interest rates on Wednesday and signaled a faster pace of increases in 2017 as central bankers adapted to the incoming Trump administration&apos;s promises of tax cuts, spending and deregulation.</p></span><span id="midArticle_1"></span><p>The increase in the federal funds rate to a range of between 0.50 percent and 0.75 percent was widely expected. But the prospect of a brisker monetary tightening contributed to a selloff in shorter-dated U.S. Treasuries and stocks. </p><span id="midArticle_2"></span><p>In a news conference following the unanimous rate decision, Fed Chair Janet Yellen said Donald Trump&apos;s election had put the central bank under a &quot;cloud of uncertainty&quot; and already prompted some policymakers to shift their view of what&apos;s to come. </p><span id="midArticle_3"></span><p>&quot;All the (Federal Open Market Committee) participants recognize that there is considerable uncertainty about how economic policies may change and what effect they may have on the economy,&quot; Yellen said.</p><span id="midArticle_4"></span><p>Though Trump&apos;s inauguration is still a month away, she said &quot;some of the participants&quot; had begun shifting their assumptions about fiscal policy. At least five of 17 Fed policymakers appeared to have boosted their interest rate outlook since September, according to the new &quot;dot plot&quot; of rate projections.</p><span id="midArticle_5"></span><p>The Fed chief was peppered with questions about the president-elect, refusing to comment on his penchant for tweeting about companies or to give advice on how any fiscal, tax or trade plan should be structured.</p><span id="midArticle_6"></span><p>&quot;I am not going to offer the incoming president advice about how to conduct himself,&quot; Yellen said.</p><span id="midArticle_7"></span><p>Trump, critical of Yellen during the campaign and considered likely to replace her when her term ends in early 2018, had not by late afternoon issued any comment about the Fed&apos;s rate decision, in line with his predecessors&apos; practice.</p><span id="midArticle_8"></span> <span class="article-divide first-article-divide"></span><p>Yields on shorter-dated Treasuries hit their highest levels in more than five years and U.S. stocks fell in choppy action. The dollar .DXY rose against a basket of currencies. Gold hit its lowest level in more than 10 months and oil prices also declined.</p><span id="midArticle_9"></span><p>Partly as a result of the changes anticipated under Trump, the Fed sees three rate hikes in 2017 instead of the two foreseen as of September.</p><span id="midArticle_10"></span><p>Yellen called that a &quot;very modest adjustment&quot; driven also by strong job gains and evidence of faster inflation. Wednesday&apos;s rate increase should be &quot;understood as a reflection of the confidence we have in the progress the economy has made,&quot; she said.</p><span id="midArticle_11"></span><p></p><span id="midArticle_12"></span> <span class="article-divide second-article-divide"></span><span class="article-subtitle"><p>TRUMP IMPACT</p> </span><span id="midArticle_13"></span><p>Fresh economic forecasts, the first since Trump won the Nov. 8 election on promises of tax cuts and increased infrastructure spending, showed policymakers shifting their outlook to one of slightly faster growth, lower unemployment and inflation just under the Fed&apos;s 2 percent target.</p><span id="midArticle_14"></span><p>The projected three rate increases next year would be followed by another three increases in both 2018 and 2019 before the rate levels off at a long-run &quot;normal&quot; 3.0 percent. That is slightly higher than three months ago, a sign the Fed feels the economy is still gaining traction.</p><span id="midArticle_15"></span><p>Markets and the Fed appeared to be close on their rate outlooks, with Fed futures markets pricing in at least two and possibly three hikes in 2017.</p><span id="midArticle_0"></span> <span class="article-divide third-article-divide"></span><p>The Fed&apos;s policy statement &quot;didn&apos;t mention the fiscal stimulus but typically their aggressiveness does indicate that there&apos;s a little more confidence that they can get away with three hikes next year,&quot; said Aaron Kohli, interest rate strategist at BMO Capital Markets.</p><span id="midArticle_1"></span><p>The central bank continued to describe that pace as &quot;gradual,&quot; keeping policy still slightly loose and supporting some further improvement in the job market. It sees unemployment falling to 4.5 percent next year and remaining at that level, which is considered to be close to full employment. The economy is projected to grow 2.1 percent in 2017, up from a previous forecast of 2.0 percent. </p><span id="midArticle_2"></span><p>U.S. bond yields had already begun moving higher following Trump&apos;s victory and as expectations of the Fed rate increase solidified. All 120 economists in a recent Reuters poll had expected a rate hike on Wednesday. </p><span id="midArticle_3"></span><p>In the weeks following the election, Fed policymakers have said Trump&apos;s proposals could push the economy into a higher gear in the short run. Even though the details of the Republican businessman&apos;s plans remain uncertain, Wednesday marked a rare case in which the Fed moved its interest rate outlook higher in the era after the 2007-2009 financial crisis. </p><span id="midArticle_4"></span><p>Risks to the outlook remain &quot;roughly balanced&quot; between factors that could slow or accelerate the economy beyond what the central bank anticipates, the Fed said, no change from its assessment last month. </p><span id="midArticle_5"></span><p>The rate increase was the first since last December and only the second since the crisis, when the Fed cut rates to near zero and deployed other tools such as massive bond purchases to stabilize the economy.</p><span id="midArticle_6"></span><p></p><span id="midArticle_7"></span><p> (Reporting by Howard Schneider;
