Prefatory Note The attached document represents the most complete and accurate version available based on original copies culled from the files of the FOMC Secretariat at the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. This electronic document was created through a comprehensive digitization process which included identifying the bestpreserved paper copies, scanning those copies, 1 and then making the scanned versions text-searchable. 2 Though a stringent quality assurance process was employed, some imperfections may remain. Please note that this document may contain occasional gaps in the text. These gaps are the result of a redaction process that removed information obtained on a confidential basis. All redacted passages are exempt from disclosure under applicable provisions of the Freedom of Information Act. 1 In some cases, original copies needed to be photocopied before being scanned into electronic format. All scanned images were deskewed (to remove the effects of printer- and scanner-introduced tilting) and lightly cleaned (to remove dark spots caused by staple holes, hole punches, and other blemishes caused after initial printing). 2 A two-step process was used. An advanced optimal character recognition computer program (OCR) first created electronic text from the document image. Where the OCR results were inconclusive, staff checked and corrected the text as necessary. Please note that the numbers and text in charts and tables were not reliably recognized by the OCR process and were not checked or corrected by staff. CONFIDENTIAL (FR) FOMC CLASS III September 17, SUPPLEMENT CURRENT ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL CONDITIONS Prepared for the Federal Open Market Committee By the Staff Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System 1993 TABLE OF CONTENTS Page THE DOMESTIC NONFINANCIAL ECONOMY Consumer sentiment . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Although the median expectation of inflation over the next five to ten years rose in September from 3.2 percent to 3.5 percent this series has also displayed a downward trend in the past several years Erratum On page two of the Greensheets, page I-16, the percent change in the GDP fixed-weight price index for 1992 was incorrectly reported as 3.4 percent The correct figure is 3.3 percent September 17, 1993 UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN SURVEY RESEARCH CENTER: SURVEY OF CONSUMER ATTITUDES (Not seasonally adjusted) 1993 Jan 1993 Feb 1993 Mar 1993 Apr 1993 May 1993 Jun 1993 Jul 1993 Aug 1993 Sep (p) Composite of current and expected conditions 89.3 86.6 85.9 85.6 80.3 81.5 77.0 77.3 77.4 Current conditions Expected conditions 98.6 83.4 96.0 80.6 101.6 75.8 99.9 76.4 98.7 68.5 98.7 70.4 96.2 64.7 95.1 65.8 97.9 64.3 110 127 100 125 111 119 104 120 103 115 108 117 102 112 96 114 105 113 111 97 103 95 96 88 95 91 83 76 89 75 80 66 76 73 72 71 134 145 166 132 148 158 136 152 173 137 155 167 140 152 163 140 147 166 141 147 171 138 150 166 140 148 172 Willingness to use credit Willingness to use savings 37 64 40 52 46 74 43 64 41 73 35 53 42 65 42 58 50 63 Expected unemployment change - next 12 months 98 110 117 115 125 127 130 129 131 3.5 4.8 4.6 5.9 4.9 4.9 4.1 4.8 4.4 5.7 4.8 5.2 4.4 5.0 4.9 4.6 4.3 4.4 Indexes of consumer sentiment (Feb. 1966=100) Personal financial situation Now compared with 12 months ago* Expected in 12 months* Expected business conditions Next 12 months* Next 5 years* Appraisal of buying conditions Cars Large household appliances* Houses Expected inflation - next 12 months Expected inflation - next 5 to 10 years -- Indicates the question is one of the five equally-weighted components of the index of sentiment.
