After exhibiting considerable tautness over the first half of January, the general tone of the money market became somewhat less tight after mid-month. to this result. Two developments contributed First, there was a sharp swing from a large deficit to a small surplus in the basic reserve position of major New York City banks, in response to some seasonal loan repayment, some liquidation Second, there of investments and an enlarged net inflow of CD money. has been a continued strong demand for Treasury bills, which has also tended to spill over into other short-term debt markets. The recent abatement of pressures in the central money market has been reflected in some easing of the Federal funds rate, which had held mainly at 4-5/8 per cent during the first half of January, and some reduction in dealer financing costs. Treasury bill rates and other short-term rates extended their earlier advance through mid-January, but since then bill rates have receded from their peaks. CD rates posted by several major banks in New York have recently tended to stabilize at 5 per cent on maturities of around 3 months. In contrast with the lessening of money market pressures, yields on intermediate- and long-term Treasury securities have risen recently after declining in the first half of January. These yields are currently close to their peaks previously reached around the turn of the year. Yields in other sectors of the capital market have shown small mixed changes recently, with municipals relatively stable but upward pressures developing in the corporate market. FINANCIAL MARKET RELATIONSHIPS IN PERSPECTIVE (Monthly averages and, where available, weekly averages of daily figures; amounts in millions of dollars) Money Market Indicators Period Period 1965--Jan.

January 28, 1966. -2- CONFIDENTIAL (FR) In the four statement weeks ending January 26, net borrowed reserves averaged almost $50 million, but week-to-week fluctuations have been exceptionally large. Member bank borrowings averaged $430 million over this period, about the same as in December. Borrowings were very high in the first half of the period, but dropped sharply after mid-month. Prospective developments. While the general economic outlook and associated credit demands suggest that debt markets may come under considerable pressure in the months ahead, the near-term outlook indicates some offsetting influences at least in the shorter-end of the market, particularly if some seasonal bank loan repayments and demands for shortterm securities continue in evidence. The Treasury's current combination refunding-pre-refunding operation can also be expected to add to the seasonal demand for bills. The rate impact of this additional demand may by now have been discounted by the market, however, as indicated by the decline of the 3-month bill to 4.56 per cent on January 27, the day after the financing was announced. Assuming that net borrowed reserves average around $100 million during the next four weeks, the 3-month bill rate may average within a 4.55-4.65 per cent range, a set of money market conditions likely to be construed in the market as consistent with an even keel policy. Departures CONFIDENTIAL (FR) -3- from this rate range are distinct possibilities, however, as markets continue to adjust to a new structure of interest rates in an environment marked by uncertainties relating to Viet Nam--which may give rise to short-run interest rate fluctuations over a wider range than has generally characterized recent years. In early February, during the period of Treasury financing and heavy System buying for reserve purposes, the 3-month bill may remain in the lower end of the range noted. Afterwards the rate might tend to rise, although that will be strongly influenced by the strength of business credit demands and the consequent aggressiveness with which banks are led to bid for CD money. Treasury financing operations may exert less upward pressure on short-term markets over the remainder of the current fiscal year. The Treasury has indicated that it would need to raise only $500 million of additional new cash in the market, while $7.5 billion of tax bills will be retired in March and June (typically about two-thirds of these are turned in for taxes). In the long-term market, the outlook points to upward pressures on bond yields. The new 5 per cent coupon offered by the Treasury for a 4-3/4 year issue may induce some further swapping out of longer-term Governments. It may also attract investor funds that might otherwise have gone into private long-term markets, either directly or through financial intermediaries. The key factors in the bond market, however, will be the size of the corporate calendar, which appears to be building up, and the extent to which banks make further portfolio adjustments in Governments and municipals. CONFIDENTIAL (FR) Reserve flows, bank credit, and money Recent developments. Total and nonborrowed reserves of banks continued to rise in January, but the annual rates of increase--estimated at 5.3 per cent and 5.9 per cent, respectively--were lower than the exceptional December rates. The expansion in reserves supported a 10 per cent growth in total member bank deposits, slightly less than in December. U.S. Government deposits showed a substantial increase during the month as the Treasury raised about $3 billion in new cash. Private time and savings deposits increased less in January than in December. Private demand deposits reached a peak in early January and have since declined; their increase in the month as a whole was less than in December. Prospective developments. During the first two statement weeks ending in February, according to projections, the System will have to supply about $1 billion in reserves through open market operations to offset reserve drains principally from float and currency movements. In the following weeks the System is likely to be a small net seller of securities of about half that amount. Assuming business loan demand remains basically strong, nonborrowed reserves in February may increase at a higher rate than in January, though still below December. Banks may demand more reserves next month partly because excess reserves had been worked down to unseasonably low levels in January. CONFIDENTIAL (FR) -5- Over the next few months, private demand deposits may increase at an appreciably slower pace than the 6.4 per cent rate of January, perhaps between 4 and 5 per cent. In February, Government deposits are expected to rise further as a result of growing tax receipts and this will tend to restrain private deposit growth in that month. Time and savings deposit growth, which was relatively slow in January, could pick up somewhat in February if the very recent increased availability of CD money to large city banks continues. But the new Treasury offering of a 4-3/4 year note with a 5 per cent coupon could make it harder for banks to attract and retain savings deposits. All in all, no substantial change is likely in the annual rate of increase for time and savings deposits in the months ahead from the 10 per cent December-January average. The developments described above would imply a growth rate over coming months in the daily average bank credit proxy somewhat below the 9 per cent average of last year. Table A-1 MARGINAL RESERVE MEASURES (Dollar amounts in millions, based on period averages of daily figures) Period Excess reserves Member bank borrowin2s re v i s 'e d As .Y.

Changes in Federal Reserve credit indicate reserves needed to offset projected changes in required reserves and factors affecting the supply of reserves. 2. Projected changes in currency outside banks reflect seasonal movements plus an allowance for growth of about $30 million per week. 3. Projected effects of Treasury operations, included in "technical factors," reflect scheduled and assumed calls in current two weeks and thereafter, maintenance of Treasury balances with Federal Reserve at $700 million. 4. Projected changes in gold stock reflect assumed outflow after January at the rate of about $50 million per month. 5. Projected changes in required reserves reflect estimated seasonal movements in private deposits, except as indicated in projections in Table B-2, and projected movements in U.S. Government demand deposits. Government deposit projections are based on anticipated Treasury receipts and expenditures and the following assumed financing operation: a $100 million increase in the weekly Treasury bill auction from February 3 to March 31. Table B-2 CHANGES IN REQUIRED RESERVE COMPONENTS Retrospective and Prospective Seasonal and Nonseasonal Changes (Dollar amounts in millions, based on weekly averages of daily figures) Total required reserves Supporting U.
