US markets closed higher following FOMC minutes

10 Jul 2014 Evaluate

The US markets closed up on Wednesday, after the FOMC minutes revealed that policy-makers decided to end the Fed’s bond purchases by October if the economy stays on track. According to the new plan, the Fed will make a $15 billion final reduction at its October meeting, after trimming it by $10 billion at each meeting up to that point. Fed officials stated that members of the public had asked them if the Fed would end the program in October or with a final $5 billion reduction in December. Most Fed officials added that the exact end of the tapering issue will have no bearing on the timing of the first rate hike. The Fed has stated that rates would remain near zero for a considerable time after the Fed halts its program of bond purchases. Fed officials also agreed that the rate of interest on excess reserves would play a central role in moving rates higher when the time comes. Fed officials would release a more detailed exit plan later this year. The Fed’s last exit plan was released in the summer of 2011.
