FEDERAL RESERVE CREDIT

BANK RESERVES (Continued)

Federal Reserve credit (page 2), averaged $16.9
billion, during the four weeks ending October 11. This
credit, which affects the reserve base of the banking
system, has risen at an 8 per cent annual rate in the
three months since late June, and at an 11 per cent rate
in the nine months since late December. The increase
jj^the past three months has reflected primarily net
J^^em purchases of Government securities.

change in the past three months, while they have risen
at a 5 Per cent annual rate in the past nine months.
By comparison, these reserves, which provide a base for
monetary expansion, rose at an average 1.5 per cent
rate from 1957 to 1966.

Member bank borrowings from the Federal Reserve
banks (page 8) are another source of Federal Reserve
credit. These borrowings averaged $145 million in the
biweekly settlement period ending October 11, up $55
million from the preceding biweekly period, but are still
at a relatively low level by historical standards. Bor­
rowings averaged about $750 million in the summer and early
fall of 1966, trended down in the fall and early winter,
and since last May have averaged about $100 million.
BARK RESERVES (Page 3)
Total reserves of member banks averaged $24.3
billion in the four weeks ending October 11, up at a 10
cent annual rate in the three months since late June,
•tSe same rate at which they have risen in the nine months

MONEY STOCK
The nation's money stock (page 5)7 which con­
sists of private demand deposits and currency in the
hands of the public, averaged $179.4 billion during the
four weeks ending October 4. Money has risen at a 6
per cent rate since late June, and at a 7 per cent rate
since late December, compared with a 2.4 per cent trend
rate from 1957 to 1966.
The demand deposit component of money (page 4 )
which averaged $139*6 billion during the four weeks
ending October 4, has risen at a 7 Per cent rate during
the last three months, and at an 8 per cent rate since
late December. Currency, the other component of the
money stock, has risen at a 4.5 per cent rate since late
December. Private demand deposits rose at about a 2
per cent rate and currency at a 3 per cent rate from
1957 to 1966.

since late December. In contrast to recent rates of growth,
reserves rose at an average 3 per cent trend from 1957
to 1966.

(total reserves less reserves required for Government,
time, and net interbank deposits) have shown little net
