T*C 发帖数: 5492 | 1 WASHINGTON (AP) -- Federal Reserve policymakers agreed last month that they
might need to take more action to support growth if the U.S. economy loses
momentum.
Minutes of their June meeting released Wednesday show that Fed officials
signaled their concern that the struggling U.S. economy could worsen if
Congress fails to avert tax hikes and across-the-board spending cuts that
kick in at the end of the year. They also expressed worries that Europe's
debt crisis will weigh on U.S. growth.
Members said the economy should continue to grow moderately. But the Fed
lowered its growth forecast at the meeting after seeing the U.S. job market
weaken and consumer spending slow. It also said it doesn't expect the
unemployment rate to fall much further this year.
Some members noted that defense contractors are already laying plans for
layoffs if lawmakers don't address the package of tax hikes and spending
cuts by the end of the year. Members warned that tighter government spending
could slow the economy well into next year.
At the meeting, the Fed extended a program that shifts its bond portfolio to
try to lower long-term interest rates. Policymakers left open the
possibility of providing further help, such as launching a new program of
bond purchases. | c*********7 发帖数: 19373 | | T*C 发帖数: 5492 | 3 要等到月底
