http://www.chicagofed.org/news_and_conferences/speeches/2005_03_09_iasc.cfm

Extractions: Now that the expansion is solidly in place, the issue of inflation becomes increasingly important. The recession and relatively slow growth of 2002 led to the emergence of a significant output gap. By output gap, I mean that an unusual amount of the economy's labor and capital resources went underutilized. With such slack in the economy, inflationary pressures were minimal. Since 2003, growth has been above potential, so the output gap is shrinking. In response, the FOMC has been removing policy accommodation at a measured pace. The question now is: how much of the output gap remains? If the gap is still significant, lingering slack resources will diminish inflationary pressures, and policy accommodation can be removed at a gradual pace. However, if the output gap has nearly closed and inflation becomes more of a threat, then monetary policy can respond accordingly.

Extractions: June 17, 2004 U.S. Economic Outlook* Looking at the economy today, you sure can say: "Oh what a difference a year makes." A year ago, economic growth was sluggish; today, it is much stronger. A year ago, payrolls were shrinking; today, they are expanding. A year ago, we were worried that inflation might fall too low; today, inflation has increased from its lows of late last year. All of these improvements suggest that the highly accommodative monetary policy that was appropriate last year may not be appropriate going forward. Tonight, I'd like to talk more specifically about some of the differences between conditions a year ago and those today, and discuss what these changes imply for monetary policy. A year ago, the recession had been over for nearly a year and a half, but the recovery had yet to gain any significant momentum. Geopolitical events and the lingering fallout from corporate scandals continued to weigh on business confidence, and in turn led firms to put off hiring new workers and to delay spending on capital equipment. Many businesses were optimistic that the economy was ready to accelerate, but they were waiting for definitive signs of stronger demand before acting. Our contacts told us: "We can meet current demand through higher productivity, so we are going to put off hiring new workers for a while longer." And, "Some of our equipment may be outdated, but we want to be sure that sales will hold up before we invest in replacements." As a result, payroll employment was still falling and the manufacturing sector had yet to show any signs of life.

Extractions: NBER Program(s): EFG ME Abstract - The new open-economy macroeconomics' seeks to provide an improved basis for monetary and exchange-rate policy through the construction of open-economy models that feature rational expectations, optimizing agents, and slowly adjusting prices of goods. This paper promotes an alternative approach for constructing such models by treating imports not as finished consumer goods but rather as raw-material inputs to the home economy's productive process. This treatment leads to a clean and simple theoretical structure that has some empirical attractions as well. A particular small-economy model is calibrated and its properties exhibited, primarily by means of impulse response functions. The preferred variant is shown to feature a pattern of correlations between exchange-rate changes and inflation that is more realistic than provided by a more standard specification. Important recent events are interpreted in light of the alternative models. Would you like to subscribe to NBER Working Papers?

Extractions: Skip navigation Navigation Path: Home Press By date By speaker It is a pleasure for me to be here today to discuss the European Commission's Review of the EU Economy in 2000. This is, as usual, an excellent piece of work in analysing the European economy and a valuable input for the ECB. The topics covered in the report deal with the most crucial issues that need to be addressed in order to improve the prospects for sustained economic growth in the euro area. Today, I will first review the outlook for economic growth and inflation in the euro area as presented both in the Commission's autumn 2000 forecasts and in other exercises such as the Eurosystem's staff projections which were published in the December 2000 issue of the ECB Monthly Bulletin. I shall then turn briefly to the current outlook for economic growth and price stability in the euro area in light of the information which has recently become available, and then analyse the current policy challenges in the euro area. Since the publication of this material, several developments have changed the outlook for the euro area. Most notably, the recent signs of a weakening of economic activity in the United States indicates that the slowdown in US economic growth could be stronger than previously anticipated, albeit rather short-lived, while the economic recovery in Japan may not be as strong as expected earlier. The exchange rate of the euro has appreciated between mid-October 2000 and 23 January 2001 by approximately 10% against the US dollar and in nominal effective terms, while oil prices have declined by approximately 15%-20% in US dollar terms over the same period.

Extractions: Not surprisingly, the renewed strength in the US economy, rising employment and higher oil prices have reignited fears of rising inflation. Reflecting these fears, the yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note has backed up to about 4.7% in June, more than 100 basis point above its low in March. Rising optimism about the US economy has led to a brief strengthening of the US Dollar in the first few months of this year.

Atlantic Economic Journal September, 2002 by Willi Semmler Introduction It is well known that in the 1990s the economy of the euro area performed worse than the U.S. economy. The differences in the GDP growth and unemployment performance of the euro area and the U.S. may be seen to have been influenced by differences in monetary policies. One interesting question, therefore, is whether the monetary policy was too tight in the 1990s and caused high unemployment rates and low economic growth rates in the euro area. What would have happened if the euro economy had followed the monetary policy rule of the U.S. in the 1990s? This is ... Want to read the whole article? You can

Indeed, most depository institutions can now meet reserve requirements by holding vault cash rather than by maintaining balances at the Federal Reserve. Part of this decrease resulted from the Federal Reserve's decision to reduce reserve requirements in 1990 and 1992 to reduce bank costs and stimulate lending. More recently, depository institutions have been able to cut required balances even further by sweeping funds from reservable to nonreservable accounts, circumventing reserve requirement regulations.

Extractions: MUTUAL FUNDS ... Economy > Federal Reserve and Monetary Policy Perhaps the part of the U.S. economy most closely watched by investors, the Federal Reserve is a somewhat misunderstood institution. Most investors think of the Federal Reserve as being Alan Greenspan and the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC). While this group might be the most influential within the Federal Reserve System, it is a small part of the whole picture. This section will provide a brief overview of the Federal Reserve and its different parts, as well as looking at how the FOMC sets monetary policy and attempts to guide the economy. The Federal Reserve System FOMC and Monetary Policy As a side note, when you hear someone refer to "the Fed," they generally mean the Federal Reserve System. Sometimes it will sound as if the FOMC or the Federal Reserve Board is being called the Fed, but that is only because this committee sets policy for the system as a whole.

http://www.investopedia.com/university/thefed/fed3.asp

Extractions: The term "monetary policy" refers to what the Federal Reserve does to influence the amount of money and credit in the U.S. economy. Changes to the amount of money and credit affect interest rates (the cost of credit) and the performance of the U.S. economy. In a simplified example, if you decrease the cost of credit, more people and firms will borrow money, which in turn will heat up the economy. The Toolbox The Fed has 3 main tools at its disposal to influence monetary policy: Open-market Operations - The Fed constantly buys and sells U.S. government securities in the financial markets, which in turn influences the level of reserves in the banking system. These decisions also affect the volume and the price of credit (interest rates). The term "open market" means that the Fed doesn't independently decide which securities dealers it will do business with on a particular day. Rather, the choice emerges from an open market where the various primary securities dealers compete. Open market operations are the most frequently employed tool of monetary policy.

http://www.washingtontimes.com/op-ed/20050730-102316-4151r.htm

Extractions: Confirming the continuation of the solid, steady expansion that finally became firmly entrenched during the second quarter of 2003, the U.S. economy grew at an impressive 3.4 percent annual rate last quarter. It was the ninth consecutive quarter during which the economy has expanded by an annual rate of at least 3.3 percent. During the two previous years beginning in July 2003, the U.S. economy has grown by an average of 4.1 percent per year. What Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan recently characterized as "a remarkable acceleration of productivity" helps to explain why the economy has been able to perform so well recently. For the 2002-2004 period, for example, productivity (output per hour) in the business sector increased at an average rate of 4.2 percent per year. Not only is that the fastest three-year period of productivity growth in more than 50 years; it is also 60 percent higher than the average annual productivity increase during the best three-year period of the go-go 1990s. Over the past two years, the U.S. economy has experienced sizable gains in employment on top of the productivity explosion. Specifically, the U.S. economy has generated a net gain of 3.7 million jobs in nonfarm payrolls since June 2003. That month the unemployment rate reached its cyclical peak of 6.3 percent. Today, it is 5 percent, a level that most economists consider to be full employment. For two years now, average employment growth has exceeded 150,000 per month. Nearly 1.1 million jobs, or more than 180,000 per month, have been created during the first half of 2005. Given the recent off-the-chart increases in productivity, U.S. employment growth since the summer of 2003 has been solid.
