At the symposium I described how I prepare for meetings of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), the group in the Federal Reserve responsible for monetary policy. What follows is based on those remarks. Preparing for an FOMC meeting is a mental exercise; it is an attempt to arrive at a comprehensive, coherent view of the U.S. economy, its prospects and the policy stance appropriate under the circumstances. With some obvious caveats, one can think of the exercise as one thinks of cooking. That is, there is an objective, similar to serving "dinner for eight": The ultimate objective of monetary policy is to help the economy achieve maximum sustainable economic growth and rising living standards. To achieve this objective, one needs a plan, a way of organizing activity, similar to the recipe in cooking.

Alan Greenspan Robert McTeer, Jr. Lawrence Kudlow Zanny Minton-Beddoes Benjamin Friedman Alan Levenson Mickey D. Levy James Gwartney William A. Niskanen Manuel H. Johnson Charles I. Plosser Has the New Economy made traditional tools of monetary policy obsolete or simply made it more difficult for central banks to conduct policy? What should the Fed do? At the Cato Institute's 18th Annual Monetary Conference, cosponsored with The Economist, leading policymakers and monetary experts will discuss those questions and related issues. The unprecedented expansion of the U.S. economy has shown that recessions are the result of government policy mistakes—especially unexpectedly restrictive monetary policy—rather than inherent to a market economy. Until the last year or so, the Federal Reserve steered an even course, but there is no guarantee of future policy success. If money growth is too rapid, it will have to be reversed, in the hope of achieving a "soft landing." And if it is too restrictive, a recession is unavoidable. It is thus important to consider the role of monetary policy in the New Economy and how best to stay on a course of stable nominal income growth and low inflation, so that market forces can work their magic.

Low Graphics Tuesday, 18 September, 2001, 12:15 GMT 13:15 UK Japan joins economic support drive The Bank of Japan has responded to US and eurozone rate cuts Japan has joined the US, Europe and Canada in easing monetary policy, in an effort to see off recession and calm markets following last week's terrorist attacks. The Bank of Japan (BoJ) has cut its discount rate to 0.10% from 0.25%. The move follows interest rate cuts ordered on Monday by central banks in countries including the US and Canada, and by the European Central Bank, which controls rates in the 12 states which have adopted the euro. Shortly after the BoJ decision, the Bank of England said it was cutting its key interest rate by 0.25% to 4.75%. 'New era' The cut in Japanese discount rates, which govern the interest the BoJ charges for loans to commercial banks, was interpreted as a small but symbolic move to back global economic support efforts. The BoJ's room to manoeuvre was limited by a decision in March to cut its main interest rate back to zero, to support economic growth in a country already suffering its worst slump in 50 years.

Monetary Policy Report and Update November 2001 Weekly Financial Statistics Business Outlook Survey Research Books and Monographs Publications and Research Periodicals Monetary Policy Report November 2001 Summary See also: Previous Reports Highlights Given the unusual nature of the uncertainty we face, the Bank's economic outlook is based on a set of working assumptions about business and consumer confidence. These assumptions are that there will be no further major escalation of terrorism, and that consumer and business confidence will return to normal levels in the second half of 2002. Under these assumptions, growth in the second half of 2001 is expected to be close to zero or slightly negative, leaving growth for the year as a whole at about 1 1/2 per cent. Growth in 2002 is expected to be 1 1/2 per cent, with the economy gaining speed through the year and growing faster than potential output in the second half. In this scenario, with more slack opening up in the economy, core inflation is expected to fall to about 1 1/2 per cent in the second half of 2002. Total CPI inflation in 2002 is also expected to move below the 2 per cent midpoint of the Bank's inflation-control target range.

72. US Economy, Monetary Policy And Recession Supplysiders are getting it dangerously wrong about the us economy and the money supply. http://www.brookesnews.com/051605useconomy.html

Subscribe to BrookesNews’ Bulletin US economy, monetary policy and recession Gerard Jackson BrookesNews.Com Monday16 May 2005 Supply-siders are warning that Greenspan is recklessly tightening monetary policy and that this move will drive the US economy into recession. The heart of the supply-side argument is that there is no inflation and that Greenspan has abandoned the “price rule”. However, as I explained in How the Fed’s price rule caused the recession the “price rule” is guaranteed to destabilise the US economy. This so-called “rule” is based on the assumption that a stable price level demonstrates the absence of inflation. It does nothing of the kind. This dangerous misconception has led to supply-siders claiming that because long-term bond yields are at 45-year lows there is no inflation. But these yields are signally an absence of inflation but belief that the CPI is not expected to rise significantly. These are two very different things, as the 1920s amply demonstrated. Critics have also pointed to the decline in the price of metals as a harbinger of an impending recession. Although it is true that most metal prices are in decline I would hesitate to use data as heralding slowdown at this stage. But this view ignores the emergence of China and its huge demands on the commodity markets. A significant fall in demand by China for commodities might lead to a fall in commodity prices even as America’s demand for commodities rose. (Monetary tightening in China suggests that the country’s demand for commodities will fall, if they haven’t already).

The first chapter of this Statement is provided below. The complete Statement can be viewed as a 681K PDF file. Introduction The strong global economy has contributed to upward pressure on commodity prices in the past couple of years. One important aspect of this was the sharp rise in oil prices, which peaked in October last year. While the rise in oil prices was seen as primarily a consequence of strong global demand, supply disruptions also played a role, and much attention last year was focused on the possible impact that higher prices might have on global economic performance. With oil prices in recent months having fluctuated in a range somewhat below their October peak, risks to the global economy from that source appear to have lessened. Prices of a range of other mineral commodities have generally remained firm or increased further over recent months. For Australia, this is providing a significant stimulus to national income and spending, with the prospect of more to come. World prices of Australia's base metals exports are now around 40 per cent higher than they were two years ago. For iron ore and coal, substantial increases in contract prices are set to take effect later this year, building on the already sharp increases of last year. In addition to boosting incomes and spending in Australia, the effects of rising commodity prices are also being seen in producer prices more generally.

About the RBA Statistics Speeches Media Releases ... Contact Us STATEMENT ON MONETARY POLICY August 2003 The material in this Statement on Monetary Policy was finalised on 7 August 2003. The first chapter of this Statement is provided below. The complete Statement can be viewed as a 838K PDF file. Introduction Both of these risks increased appreciably in the first half of the year, with the international economic data generally disappointing and the Australian dollar on a strong upward trend during that period, particularly during May. More recent developments, however, suggest that the risks from these two sources have lessened. For the present, then, the downside risks to the Australian economy from external sources appear less severe than they were a couple of months ago. Nonetheless, developments in these areas are subject to ongoing change and will continue to have a strong bearing on the policy assessment in the period ahead. Alongside the borrowing for the purchase of housing assets, there is the phenomenon of housing equity withdrawal, whereby households are borrowing against rising housing values to fund other forms of spending. This process is estimated to have been augmenting household cash flows in the past year by around 4 per cent. In the short term, absent an adverse shock, this is likely to continue, thereby supporting demand growth. But were Australia to enter at some stage a period of declining housing prices, it is likely that this equity withdrawal would be scaled back, or would possibly go into reverse, resulting in a cutback in spending, with a potentially destabilising effect on the broader economy. The risk of a large impact from such an event will be greater the longer these current trends in credit and housing markets persist.

Raise rates more aggressively Stay with moderate rate hikes Pause from hiking rates Stop raising rates altogether View results NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan does not see a significant slowdown in the U.S. economy ahead or major risk from a housing bubble, he told lawmakers Thursday. In remarks to the Joint Economic Committee of Congress, Greenspan said earlier warning signs of slower economic growth "were not presaging a more serious slowdown in the pace of activity." "Despite some of the risks that I have highlighted, the U.S. economy seems to be on a reasonably firm footing, and underlying inflation remains contained," he said. His remarks, ending with a reference to the "measured" language the central bank used in its last policy statement regarding rate increases, suggested the Fed will retain its policy of quarter-point interest rate hikes, at least for the foreseeable future. On Wall Street , stock prices rose while Treasury bond prices fell, pushing the yield on the 10-year note up to 3.97 percent from 3.93 percent Wednesday. Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions.
