COMMERCIAL PAPER AMD NEGOTIABLE CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT
"
(Pages 6, 7, 13, and 14)

DATA REVISED FOR MONEY STOCK ARP DEMAND DEPOSITS
(Pages 4, 5, and 12)

Outstanding commercial paper averaged $16.5
billion during July, up at a 23 per cent annual rate
since February. Conmercial paper rose at a 64 per cent
rate from July 1966 to February, and at a 17 per cent
rate from early 1964 to mid-1966.

The Federal Reserve Board has revised the
series on money stock and its components. Monthly
and weekly data on money stock, its currency and
demand deposit components, time deposits, and Govern­
ment demand deposits, going back to 1959, appear in
the August Bulletin

Outstanding negotiable certificates of deposit
R major banks totaled $20.6 billion as of August 23, up
at an annual rate of 21 per cent since February. By com­
parison, these CD's rose at a 2 per cent rate from July
1966 to February, after rising at a 26 per cent average
rate in the preceding two and one-half years.
Since February, interest rates on commercial
paper and on certificates of deposit have followed a simi­
lar course. Likewise, interest rates on these two instru­
ments rose together from early 1964 to mid-1966. By con­
trast, a marked spread between the two rates developed
in the period from July 1966 to February 1967 when interest
rates on CD’s were constrained by the 5-1/2 per cent maxi­
mum rate permitted under Regulation Q. At that time
growth of commercial paper accelerated and CD's changed
kittle on balance.
Since late spring, yields on both commercial
paper and certificates of deposit have risen at about the
same rate as in late 1965 and early 1966. The market yield
on conmercial paper on August 30 was 5*00 per cent, up
from 4.67 in May. The average bid on new six-month CD's
was 5.13 per cent in August, up from 4.50 per cent in May.

Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

Money stock, as measured by the revised
series, averaged $178.9 billion in the four weeks
ended August 23- Money has risen at a 9 per cent
annual rate over the past six months and at a 7 per
cent rate over the past nine months. Estimates
indicate that money stock plus Government deposits
has risen at about an 8 per cent rate over the
past six months and nine months.
The charts on pages 4 and 5 present both
the revised series and the former series for compari­
son. The revised series are somewhat higher on
average because of benchmark adjustments. Other dif­
ferences, which tend to smooth the series, reflect
an updating of seasonal adjustment factors.

Rates of change reported in this release are
intended to serve as aids for analyzing recent
developments. Longer periods of time than
covered here are generally required to identify
major turning points.
