Release Date: October 31, 2007
For immediate release
The Federal Open Market Committee decided today to
lower its target for the
federal funds rate
25 basis points to 4-1/2 percent.
Economic growth was solid in the third quarter, and strains in financial
markets have eased somewhat on balance. However, the pace of economic
expansion will likely slow in the near term, partly reflecting the
intensification of the housing correction. Today’s action, combined with
the policy action taken in September, should help forestall some of the
adverse effects on the broader economy that might otherwise arise from the
disruptions in financial markets and promote moderate growth over time.
Readings on core inflation have improved modestly this year, but recent
increases in energy and commodity prices, among other factors, may put
renewed upward pressure on inflation. In this context, the Committee judges
that some inflation risks remain, and it will continue to monitor inflation
developments carefully.
The Committee judges that, after this action, the upside risks to inflation
roughly balance the downside risks to growth. The Committee will continue to
assess the effects of financial and other developments on economic prospects
and will act as needed to foster price stability and sustainable economic
growth.
Voting for the FOMC monetary policy action were: Ben S. Bernanke, Chairman;
Timothy F. Geithner, Vice Chairman; Charles L. Evans; Donald L. Kohn; Randall
S. Kroszner;
Frederic S. Mishkin; William Poole; Eric S. Rosengren; and Kevin M. Warsh.
Voting against was Thomas M. Hoenig, who preferred no change in the federal
funds rate at this meeting.
In a related action, the Board of Governors unanimously approved a
25-basis-point decrease in the discount rate to 5 percent. In taking this
action, the Board approved the requests submitted by the Boards of Directors
of the Federal Reserve Banks of New York, Richmond, Atlanta, Chicago, St.
Louis, and San Francisco.
