Press Release
Release Date: October 28, 2015
For immediate release
Information received since the Federal Open Market Committee met in September suggests that economic activity has been expanding at a moderate pace. Household spending and business fixed investment have been increasing at solid rates in recent months, and the housing sector has improved further; however, net exports have been soft. The pace of job gains slowed and the unemployment rate held steady. Nonetheless, labor market indicators, on balance, show that underutilization of labor resources has diminished since early this year. Inflation has continued to run below the Committee's longer-run objective, partly reflecting declines in energy prices and in prices of non-energy imports. Market-based measures of inflation compensation moved slightly lower; survey-based measures of longer-term inflation expectations have remained stable.
Consistent with its statutory mandate, the Committee seeks to foster maximum employment and price stability. The Committee expects that, with appropriate policy accommodation, economic activity will expand at a moderate pace, with labor market indicators continuing to move toward levels the Committee judges consistent with its dual mandate. The Committee continues to see the risks to the outlook for economic activity and the labor market as nearly balanced but is monitoring global economic and financial developments. Inflation is anticipated to remain near its recent low level in the near term but the Committee expects inflation to rise gradually toward 2 percent over the medium term as the labor market improves further and the transitory effects of declines in energy and import prices dissipate. The Committee continues to monitor inflation developments closely.
To support continued progress toward maximum employment and price stability, the Committee today reaffirmed its view that the current 0 to 1/4 percent target range for the federal funds rate remains appropriate. （金利据え置き） In determining whether it will be appropriate to raise the target range at its next meeting, the Committee will assess progress--both realized and expected--toward its objectives of maximum employment and 2 percent inflation.（次回12月のFOMCで利上げの可能性） 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 anticipates that it will be appropriate to raise the target range for the federal funds rate when it has seen some further improvement in the labor market and is reasonably confident that inflation will move back to its 2 percent objective over the medium term.
The Committee is maintaining its existing policy of reinvesting principal payments from its holdings of agency debt and agency mortgage-backed securities in agency mortgage-backed securities and of rolling over maturing Treasury securities at auction. This policy, by keeping the Committee's holdings of longer-term securities at sizable levels, should help maintain accommodative financial conditions.
When the Committee decides to begin to remove policy accommodation, it will take a balanced approach consistent with its longer-run goals of maximum employment and inflation of 2 percent. The Committee currently anticipates that, even after employment and inflation are near mandate-consistent levels, economic conditions may, for some time, warrant keeping the target federal funds rate below levels the Committee views as normal in the longer run.
Voting for the FOMC monetary policy action were: Janet L. Yellen, Chair; William C. Dudley, Vice Chairman; Lael Brainard; Charles L. Evans; Stanley Fischer; Dennis P. Lockhart; Jerome H. Powell; Daniel K. Tarullo; and John C. Williams. Voting against the action was Jeffrey M. Lacker, who preferred to raise the target range for the federal funds rate by 25 basis points at this meeting.(またもやラッカー氏が利上げ主張)
FRB: Press Release--Federal Reserve issues FOMC statement--October 28, 2015

イエレン会見は今回はナシ
今回のFOMCでも、金利自体はゼロ金利据え置きとなりました。
問題は、いつゼロ金利解除するのか、利上げに踏み切るのか、です。
この点、FOMC声明を読むと、
エネルギー価格の下落にもかかわらず、
目線はあくまでも利上げ方向にあるようです。
経済ボロボロで大規模な量的緩和に踏み切った欧州や、
絶賛バブル崩壊中の中国とは対照的に、
米経済は底堅く回復基調にあるようです。
また、次回12月のFOMCで、利上げの可能性があることが
改めて表明されています。
また、Jeffrey M. Lacker 氏は、前回に引き続き、
今回0.25%利上げすべきであると主張しました。
FRBの方向性として、利上げ目線であることは間違いないようです。
以前のようなイケイケムードからは後退したようにも思えますが、
経済ボロボロで、貨幣をジャブジャブ刷って刷って刷りまくりの欧州、日本と比較すると、相対的には、
あくまでも米国一人勝ちの構図は変わっていません。
ファンダメンタル分析的に考えれば、
FOMC声明で乱高下するも、
結局米国しかまともなとこないじゃん、となり、じわりとドル高になる
と考えるのが自然です。
少なくとも、ドル安になる材料ではありません。
これを受けてマーケットはどのように反応したのでしょうか。
