Why do the U.S. economic recovery and labor market require additional monetary policy support? Specifically, why did the Federal Reserve begin purchasing additional agency mortgage-backed securities in September 2012?

The Federal Reserve conducts monetary policy to foster its long-run statutory objectives of maximum employment, price stability, and moderate long-term interest rates. Since late 2008, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) has maintained a highly accommodative stance of monetary policy intended to support economic recovery and ensure that inflation, over time, remains stable and near its objective of 2 percent. Notwithstanding some positive signs, the economic recovery remained weak at the time of the September 2012 meeting. The unemployment rate was more than 2 percentage points above what most FOMC participants saw as its longer-run normal value. Further, the rate of improvement in the labor market had been painfully slow. Unless the economy were to grow more quickly than it had been recently, the unemployment rate was likely to remain well above its longer-run normal level for some time.

Economic growth was being held back by a number of headwinds. First, although the housing sector had shown signs of improvement, housing activity remained at low levels and was contributing much less to the recovery than would normally be expected at this stage of the business cycle. Second, fiscal policy had become an important headwind for the pace of economic growth. State and local governments still faced tight budget situations, and real spending had been declining at the federal, state, and local levels. Third, stresses in credit and financial markets continued to hold back the economy. Tight borrowing conditions remained a problem for some borrowers. A major source of financial strain was uncertainty about developments in Europe, which affected the U.S. economy through global trade and financial linkages.

To promote a stronger pace of economic recovery, the FOMC decided in September 2012 to increase policy accommodation by purchasing additional agency mortgage-backed securities at a pace of $40 billion per month. The Committee also decided to continue through the end of the year its program to extend the average maturity of its holdings of securities as announced in June. Taken together, these actions increase the Fed's holdings of longer-term securities by about $85 billion per month. Asset purchases support the recovery by putting downward pressure on longer-term interest rates, such as mortgage rates, and by making broader financial conditions more favorable for business and household spending and investment.

The Committee will closely monitor incoming information on economic and financial developments in the coming months. If the outlook for the labor market does not improve substantially, the Committee will continue its purchases of agency mortgage-backed securities, undertake additional asset purchases, and employ its other policy tools as appropriate until such improvement is achieved in the context of price stability.

Looks like it is bond futures, but it should be pretty close.
The only issue is that you'll have to change it every 3 months. Next one expires in dec-2012

Thanks mka. It may come in useful.

What a twist on words. Politicians categorize middle class based on household income and not individual income. Amazing how people twist words to suit their argument. Just like the politicians
