LOW INTEREST RATES WASTED IN REGULATORY MUDDLE
By Paul Taylor, NADA Chief Economist
The next FOMC meeting is in November, a two-day event that will announce policy the day after Election Day for all of House of Representatives, some U.S. Senators and quite of few Governors, state and local officials.
The Federal Open Market Committee is struggling with the idea of taking additional significant action to stimulate economic activity right after the election. The FOMC stated the following in the press release for recent September FOMC meeting:
"Measures of underlying inflation are currently at levels somewhat below those the Committee judges most consistent, over the longer run, with its mandate to promote maximum employment and price stability. With substantial resource slack continuing to restrain cost pressures and longer-term inflation expectations stable, inflation is likely to remain subdued for some time before rising to levels the Committee considers consistent with its mandate.
The Committee will maintain the target range for the federal funds rate at 0 to 1/4 percent and continues to anticipate that economic conditions, including low rates of resource utilization, subdued inflation trends, and stable inflation expectations, are likely to warrant exceptionally low levels for the federal funds rate for an extended period."
