Information received since the Federal Open Market
Committee met in May June indicates
that the labor market remains strong and that economic activity is
has been rising at a moderate rate.
Job gains have been solid, on average, in recent months, and the unemployment
rate has remained low. Although growth of household spending appears
to havehas picked up from earlier in the year,
indicators growth of
business fixed investment have has been
soft. On a 12-month basis, overall inflation and inflation for items other than
food and energy are running below 2 percent. Market-based measures of inflation
compensation have declinedremain low;
survey-based measures of longer-term inflation expectations are little changed.
Consistent with its statutory mandate, the Committee
seeks to foster maximum employment and price stability. In light of the
implications of global developments for the economic outlook as well as muted
inflation pressuresIn support of
these goals, the Committee decided to lower the target
range for the federal funds rate to 2 to 2-1/4 percentmaintain
the target range for the federal funds rate at 2-1/4 to 2-1/2 percent.
This action support Tthe
Committee’s continues to view
that sustained expansion of economic
activity, strong labor market conditions, and inflation near the Committee’s
symmetric 2 percent objective as the most likely outcomes, but uncertainties
about this outlook have increasedremain.
As the Committee contemplates the future path of
the target range for the federal funds rate, it will continue toIn
light of these uncertainties and muted inflation pressures, the Committee will closely
monitor the implications of incoming information for the economic outlook and
will act as appropriate to sustain the expansion, with a strong labor market
and inflation near its symmetric 2 percent objective.
In determining the timing and size of future adjustments to the target range for the federal funds rate, the Committee will assess realized and expected economic conditions relative to its maximum employment objective and its symmetric 2 percent inflation objective. This assessment will take into account a wide range of information, including measures of labor market conditions, indicators of inflation pressures and inflation expectations, and readings on financial and international developments.
The Committee will conclude the reduction of its aggregate securities holdings in the System Open Market Account in August, two months earlier than previously indicated.
