Following the release of the minutes on Wednesday, Fed funds futures rates showed that investors doubled the likelihood of a rate increase from the Fed in June, to 34 percent from 17 percent, according to CME group's FedWatch tool.

The likelihood of a June interest rate hike fell to 26 percent after Dudley's speech on Thursday.
