Week ending: October 7, 1981
Bw 0ver lon8er periods of time the growth of the adjusted monetary
nominates the growth of money (M1B). For example, over the last 9
fTCnths monetary base and M1B have both grown at about a 5 percent rate.
However, during shorter periods of stable base growth, fluctuations in
currency growth will be associated with fluctuations in bank reserve growth.
These short-run fluctuations in reserve growth will in turn lead to short-run
fluctuations in the growth of bank deposits.
For example, the adjusted monetary base and the adjusted bank
reserve series published in this release recently have shown somewhat
dissimilar growth rates. From the four weeks ending July 22 to the four
weeks ending September 23, the adjusted monetary base increased at a 3.9
percent rate, while adjusted bank reserves increased at a 7.6 percent rate.
The latter increase represents a sharp turnaround in reserve growth, whereas
the cited base growth is similar to that observed over the prior two-month
period.
This discrepancy is associated with the fact that the growth of
currency has slowed markedly in the last two months. Over the recent period
from the four weeks ending July 22 to the four weeks ending September 23,
currency held by the nonbank public increased at a 2.9 percent rate. In
contrast, from the four weeks ending May 20 to the four weeks ending July 22,
currency holdings increased at a 5.9 percent rate. Since the recent slowdown
in currency growth has not coincided with a slowdown in adjusted monetary
base growth, reserve growth has accelerated.
The recent increase in adjusted bank reserve growth has coincided
with a similar turnaround in M1B growth resulting from an increase in
transaction deposits. However, the adjusted bank reserve growth over the last
two months is still faster than the growth of M1B over the same period. In
part, this phenomenon is explained by the increase in the growth of savings
plus small time deposits at commercial banks, detailed in the table below.
Some of the recent reserve growth is being held against the increases in these
deposits, as well as increases in the transaction deposits included in M1B.
