Aqui fica a declaração do Fed, altera a sua posição sobre a evolução dos preços, afirmando que os risco de diminmuição de inflação são iguais ao de aumento da inflação, na declaração anterior os riscos de diminuição da inflação eram maiores. Mas considera que a política monetária se irá manter por periodo considerável.
"The Federal Open Market Committee decided today to keep its target for the federal funds rate at 1 percent.
The Committee continues to believe that an accommodative stance of monetary policy, coupled with robust underlying growth in productivity, is providing important ongoing support to economic activity. The evidence accumulated over the intermeeting period confirms that output is expanding briskly, and the labor market appears to be improving modestly. Increases in core consumer prices are muted and expected to remain low.
The Committee perceives that the upside and downside risks to the attainment of sustainable growth for the next few quarters are roughly equal. The probability of an unwelcome fall in inflation has diminished in recent months and now appears almost equal to that of a rise in inflation. However, with inflation quite low and resource use slack, the Committee believes that policy accommodation can be maintained for a considerable period. "
