Press Release Release Date: January 22, 2008 For immediate release The Federal Open Market Committee has decided to lower its target for the federal funds rate 75 basis points to 3-1/2 percent. The Committee took this action in view of a weakening of the economic outlook and increasing downside risks to growth. While strains in short-term funding markets have eased somewhat, broader financial market conditions have continued to deteriorate and credit has tightened further for some businesses and households. Moreover, incoming information indicates a deepening of the housing contraction as well as some softening in labor markets. The Committee expects inflation to moderate in coming quarters, but it will be necessary to continue to monitor inflation developments carefully. Appreciable downside risks to growth remain. The Committee will continue to assess the effects of financial and other developments on economic prospects and will act in a timely manner as needed to address those risks. Voting for the FOMC monetary policy action were: Ben S. Bernanke, Chairman; Timothy F. Geithner, Vice Chairman; Charles L. Evans; Thomas M. Hoenig; Donald L. Kohn; Randall S. Kroszner; Eric S. Rosengren; and Kevin M. Warsh. Voting against was William Poole, who did not believe that current conditions justified policy action before the regularly scheduled meeting next week. Absent and not voting was Frederic S. Mishkin. In a related action, the Board of Governors approved a 75-basis-point decrease in the discount rate to 4 percent. In taking this action, the Board approved the requests submitted by the Boards of Directors of the Federal Reserve Banks of Chicago and Minneapolis. http://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/press/monetary/20080122b.htm Fed決議降息0.75個百分點聲明全文 2008/01/22 22:08 鉅亨網【鉅亨網編譯郭照青．綜合華盛頓外電】聯邦公開市場委員會(FOMC)周二針對調降隔夜拆款利率行動發表了下列聲明。 FOMC決議調降聯邦基金利率目標0.75個百分點至3.50%。委員會此次採取行動，觀點係基於經濟展望疲弱及經濟成長的下滑風險增加。雖然短期資金市場吃緊情況稍有緩和，但較廣義的金融市場情況卻持續惡化，對部份企業與家庭而言，信用情況已進一步緊縮。此外，陸續公布的訊息顯示，房屋市場緊縮程度已見加深，勞工市場則出現疲軟。委員會預期，未來幾季，通貨膨脹將轉為溫和，但仍有必要持續密切注意通貨膨脹的發展。經濟成長下滑的風險仍然存在。委員會將持續評估金融與其他情況的發展對經濟展望的影響，並將因應需要，適時化解該風險。在相關行動中，Fed理事會通過調降重貼現率0.75個百分點至4%。 http://tw.stock.yahoo.com/news_content/url/d/a/080122/2/sj4d.html -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 59.115.212.80
