FOMC Statement, Revised for Reality
in Economy | Federal Reserve | Inflation
The Fed's statement was as close to sarcasm as you might ever expect to hear from that august body. Here's the full statement:
"The Federal Open Market Committee decided today to keep its target for the federal funds rate at 5-1/4 percent.
Recent indicators have been mixed and the adjustment in the housing sector is ongoing. Nevertheless, the economy seems likely to continue to expand at a moderate pace over coming quarters.
Recent readings on core inflation have been somewhat elevated. Although inflation pressures seem likely to moderate over time, the high level of resource utilization has the potential to sustain those pressures.
In these circumstances, the Committee's predominant policy concern remains the risk that inflation will fail to moderate as expected. Future policy adjustments will depend on the evolution of the outlook for both inflation and economic growth, as implied by incoming information."
Of course, they can't say what they really think. The Fed knows how important confidence is, and they do not want to do anything to discourage consumer sentiment or spook the psychology of the markets.
If they were unconcerned with those issues, the statement might look more like this:
"The Federal Open Market Committee decided today to keep its target for the federal funds rate at 5-1/4 percent.
Recent indicators have been much worse than what we were hoping for: Housing is a bigger mess than we anticipated; Business Capex is heading south, as are durable goods. Retail sales have been punk for 3 months running, (and what' with those excuses from the retailers? Too hot! Too cold! Lunar eclipse!) Don't even ask about the Automakers. We expect the economy is likely to continue to soften until it slips to about a 1.5% GDP.
Even worse, recent readings on inflation have been elevated. We were hoping that inflation pressures would moderate as the economy stabilized, but no such luck.
In these circumstances, the Committee's predominant policy concern is that we have painted ourselves into a corner, and we are running out of options. On the one hand, Inflation remains an ongoing concern, as medical costs, food, and energy remain problematic. On the other hand, it is apparent that growth is cooling rapidly. Housing has flipped from a net positive for consumers and job seekers to a net negative.
All told, we are running out of options until one or the other of these gets much much worse. Future policy adjustments, therefore, will depend on the evolution of the outlook for both inflation and economic growth, as implied by incoming information. As noted above, if GDP slips below 1.5%, we will be shifting our bias towards easing. Appreciably worse that 1.5%, and we will have to act on rates to prevent a recession -- inflation be damned.
On a final note, the FOMC has taken up a collection, and as a retirement present, we are sending former Chairman Alan Greenspan to a lovely spa on Fiji Island for the foreseeable future. Since there are no satellite feeds, internet connections or any off island communications at all -- preferably, around December 2008.
Don't hold your breath waiting for that dose of reality . . .

carrancho,
Obrigado pela resposta.
Uma coisa é não constituir surpresa nenhuma o teor do press release da FED (daí ser contestável a credibilidade de quem escreveu a nota do BPI Online), outra coisa muito diferente é o facto de agora o FOMC não falar minimamente em necessidade de elevar os juro no futuro próximo, o que manifestamente é bom para o mercado accionista, porque até abre a porta a descidas dos juros. Claro que os problemas (da economia, do mercado) continuam lá, até mais evidentes com a perspectiva, pelo memos, de um slow down.
Um abraço
Comentador

NASDAQ 2,456 1.98% 1.68%
S&P 500 1,433 1.60% 1.07%
Não produzirá isto um efeito bola de neve?!?!
É que os indices estavam em pontos criticos e de indefenição, as acções idem aspas aspas... pode bem ser o catalizador a fortes subidas, ou estou a ver mal a "coisa"?
Um abraço,

Sou só eu a especular, mas esse deixar transparecer uma mudança de atitude no discurso da FED até pode ser propositado para acalmar os receios que dominavam os mercados.
Não nos levará isso a valorizações que activem certos aspectos tecnicos que por sua vez provoquem novas valorizações? Como o W referido pelo moguita? Eu quero acreditar que sim!
Um abraço,
Mário Carrancho

Lembram-se das reduções das taxas de juro em 50 bp no tempo das grandes quedas? O que acontecia é que no dia da notícia o Nasdaq subia 9%, depois...bem depois o pessoal começava a por a mão na consciência e apercebia-se que a única justificação era que a economia não se recomendava...e lá vinha tudo para baixo outra vez!
PS: é impressão minha ou o objectivo do duplo fundo já foi atingido hoje no intraday?

Parece-me uma resposta dos mercados muito a quente.
Nos ultimos tempos sempre que sairam noticias que o mercado estava todo a aguardar (dados da tx de desemprego e outras afins) o mercado no curto prazo respondeu sempre positivamente, por muito estranho que as vezes pareça, pois algumas noticias nem eram nada positivas, mas por mais negativas que sejam o mercado vai sempre buscar qualquer coisa de positivo no meio de tanta desgraça e acaba por subir no curto prazo. O poder dos bulls é impressionante!
Quando a poeira assenta e se analisam os dados com mais calma então ai a razão fala mais alto e vem tudo por ai abaixo!
Aparentemente esta reacção é mais forte do que as anteriores, veremos os episodios dos próximos capitulos.
Abraço

A entidade presidida por Ben Bernanke, de forma inesperada, alterou o seu discurso, afastando o cenário de novos aumentos do preço do dinheiro.
Isto, na minha opinião, não faz o menor sentido. Quem esperava uma subida de taxas (hoje ou no futuro) é porque não anda no mercado, decerto
Um abraço,

Fed mantém juros nos 5,25% e afasta subidas no futuro próximo
21/03/2007
A Reserva Federal norte-americana (Fed) manteve a taxa de juro de referência inalterada pelo nono mês consecutivo, nos 5,25%, tal como os economistas tinham antecipado. A entidade presidida por Ben Bernanke, de forma inesperada, alterou o seu discurso, afastando o cenário de novos aumentos do preço do dinheiro.
Abraço,

a quente a ideia qu o mercado leu foi que eles vão ficar quietinhos, pois as pressões inflacionistas irão acalmar ao longo do tempo .. e logo verão.. dependendo se essas pressões não acalmarem VS crescimento económico
parece que o mercado no intra gostou da "esperar para ver"

então....
....em teoria era o que os mercados queriam ouvir para continuar a subir, pelo menos até ao início das quedas recentes ?
Ulisses e Infoo : há indícios de outras leituras "nas entrelinhas" do que estão a dizer?
Obrigado e um abraço.

"Voting for the FOMC monetary policy action were: Ben S. Bernanke, Chairman; Timothy F. Geithner, Vice Chairman; Thomas M. Hoenig; Donald L. Kohn; Randall S. Kroszner; Cathy E. Minehan; Frederic S. Mishkin; Michael H. Moskow; William Poole; and Kevin M. Warsh."
