MONEY STOCK (Pages 2 & 11)

CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT (Pages 7 & 12)

The nation's money stock, demand, deposits plus
currency held by the public, averaged $171 billion in
the two weeks ending December 28, almost $2 billion higher
than the average for the preceding eight weeks.

Large certificates of deposit at weekly
reporting commercial banks, a quite volatile component
of time deposits in recent years, totaled $15.6 billion
on December 28. The volume of these deposits has
increased slightly in recent weeks, even though more
CD's matured in December than in any previous month.
Lower interest rates on other money market instruments
have probably enabled banks to regain a more competitive
position in seeking these funds.

-------- —
The recent sharp rise may reflect a quarterly
pattern in the seasonally adjusted data. Since late 1964,
money has been relatively high during the months of June,
September, December, and, to a lesser degree, March. In
the intervening months, money has generally grown at slower
rates or declined.
(See this Bank's release, "Triangles
of U. S. Economic Data.")
In view of this pattern, some monthly changes
may be misleading. Since September and since June, months
with comparable "peaks," money has decreased slightly,
following a 6 per cent increase in the year which ended
in June. From 1961 to 1965, money increased at a 3 Per
cent average annual rate.

Large CD's contracted moderately from late
October to mid-December, after falling rapidly in the
preceding two months. The longer run trend for large
certificates of deposit has been rapid growth; from
January 1964 to August 1966, the volume outstanding
increased at an average annual rate of 25 per cent.

TIME DEPOSITS (Page 6)
Time deposits at all commercial banks averaged
$158.8 billion in the week ending December 28. This
marked the third consecutive week in which these deposits
rose significantly, following a period of little change
since mid-August. By contrast, time deposits rose 12 per
cent in the preceding year.
