MONEY MARKET AND RESERVE RELATIONSHIPS Recent developments During the past four weeks money market conditions have eased further, including declines in key short-term interest rates. Intermediate and long-term bondyields, however, have risen considerably. The reduction in discount rates on April 7 from 4 to 4 per cent had its most immediate impact, as expected, on Federal funds and dealer loan rates, on CD offering rates, and on Treasury bill yields. Since the discount rate cut, Federal funds have averaged close to 4 per cent and have often traded somewhat below the discount rate. dealer loans in New York have moved down into a 4-1/8 - 4 Rates on new per cent range. In the bill market, the 3-month Treasury bill has declined about 20 basis points to around 3.75 per cent from its level just before the discount rate was cut. Longer-term bill rates have registered smaller declines, and are currently 10 - 15 basis points above the 3-month bill rate. This follows a sustained period when longer-term bill rates were below or about equal to the 3-month bill rate. The changes that have occurred within the structure of bill rates are indicative of the shift in market attitudes away from expectations of further rate declines toward a feeling that, with the discount rate reduction accomplished and with business news appearing more optimistic, rates may have eased about as much as is likely over the near term.

April 28, 1967. CONFIDENTIAL (FR) -2- April 28, 1967. Such a shift in market attitudes, in conjunction with the continued large corporate calendar and the sizable U.S. Government financing program, has had a pronounced influence on long-term markets. Yields on new high grade corporate bonds and long-term U.S. Government securities have risen 15 - 25 basis points since the discount rate was cut. Yields on State and local government issues have also risen, and dealer inventories of such securities have increased. Banks have reduced rates on large denomination CD's in line with reductions in other short-term rates, and outstanding CD's have declined by almost $600 million over the tax period (measured by the three weeks ending April 19). This decline is more than we had expected; it apparently reflects a deliberate policy of banks in light of continued rapid increases in other time and savings deposits, the ready availability of Federal funds at reduced rates, and the prospect of reduced loan demand following the mid-April tax borrowing. On average in April, total time and savings deposits rose at a 14.5 per cent annual rate accounting for the bulk of the 13.5 per cent rise in the bank credit proxy. (The rise would be about 1 percentage points less after including a decline on average in Eurodollar borrowings.) Bank credit expansion moderated in the course of April. From the week ending March 29 to the week ending April 26, the proxy rose at a 9.5 per cent annual rate; bank credit outstanding is projected to decline in the current statement week ending May 3 as U.S. Government deposits begin to decline sharply. CONFIDENTIAL (FR) -3- April 28, 1967. U.S. Government deposits rose in April about in line with earlier expectations and contributed to a 6 per cent annual rate of decline in private demand deposits on average (and a 5 per cent rate of decline in the money supply). The decline in such private deposits was slightly greater than projected, as loan demands around the tax period were relatively moderate despite the large accelerated tax payments. In general, money markets and banks accommodated tax period churning with relative ease. This may have reflected not only the availability and lower cost of reserves to banks but also probably the partial use of capital market proceeds to finance tax payments. Nonborrowed reserves on average in April increased at a 7.5 per cent annual rate, sharply down from the previous month. There was a decline in bank excess reserves, as the effects of the March reserve requirement reductions apparently worked themselves through. Member bank borrowings also declined in April, and the increase in total reserves was even less than for nonborrowed on average during the month. During the past four weeks, free reserves averaged $210 million and borrowings averaged $150 million. During the previous four weeks, free reserves had averaged $218 million and borrowings $203 million. CONFIDENTIAL (FR) -4- April 28, 1967. Prospective developments Maintenance of prevailing money market conditions over the next three weeks would involve a Federal funds rate averaging 4 per cent or a shade below and a 3-month bill rate fluctuating generally in a 3.65 - 3.85 per cent range. Member bank borrowings are likely to be in the $100 - $200 million area. Free reserves could vary more widely, perhaps in a $150 to $300 million range, depending in part on bank reserve management policies, on dealer financing needs and reinvestment flows associated with the Treasury refunding, and the need to maintain an "even keel" monetary posture. Books will be open for the current Treasury refunding and pre-refunding operation date on May 15. from May 1 through May 3, with settlement The issues were attractively priced but, as of this writing, their ultimate market reception is uncertain. The yield outlook is even more uncertain in other capital markets. Some observers are beginning to conclude that the recent rise in long-term rates has been overdone, and that a minor bond market rally is a possibility. But others point to the continuing large supply of corporate, municipal, and Federal agency issues in the market or in prospect and to expected large Treasury financing in the second half and see the odds favoring some further yield rise. On balance, it would seem that maintenance of prevailing money market conditions could permit--but not ensure--a rally in the bond market. Such a development would be less likely if the financing calendar were CONFIDENTIAL (FR) April 28, 1967. to expand further, or if money market conditions were permitted to drift toward the tight end of the ranges specified above. With an even keel maintained in the money market, growth in nonborrowed reserves is likely to slow further in May on average. Expansion in bank credit, as measured on a daily-average basis by the proxy, may slow to an annual rate in the 1 - 4 per cent range. With the March-April tax period passed, net business loan demands in May are expected to be quite moderate. Projected needs for inventory financing are small and--given the continuing large corporate calendar and the sharp recent uptrend in use of the commercial paper market--bank loan repayment may rise. Needs of Government security dealers for bank financing will largely depend on general interest in the refunding. If bank credit expansion in May is in the range projected, the annual rate of increase in the proxy over the 6 month December-May period would be around 11 per cent (and 2 percentage points less after including the decline in Euro-dollar borrowings). The May projections allow for a sharp reversal of the April rise in U.S. Government deposits, only partially offset by a rise in private demand deposits. The money supply is currently projected to rise in May on average at an annual rate of 8 - 10 per cent, bringing the annual rate of growth over the December-May period to around 5 per cent. CONFIDENTIAL(FR) -6- April 28, 1967. Time deposits are expected to show a somewhat slower growth rate in May, perhaps in a 10 - 13 per cent range, if commercial banks continue to exhibit only mild interest in increasing the volume of outstanding CD's. However, it is possible that attractive yields emerging in securities markets and additional indications of strong economic expansion may encourage some banks to seek additional investible funds. The rate of growth in other time and savings deposits may moderate, especially if consumer spending continues to pick up.
