Pacific Investment Management Co.’s Bill Gross and Jan Hatzius at Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (GS) say investors should prepare for additional bond purchases by the Federal Reserve, known as QE3, to combat a slowing U.S. economy. A decision to buy more debt is “getting closer,” Gross, who runs the world’s largest mutual fund, wrote on Twitter yesterday. Hatzius, the chief economist at New York-based Goldman Sachs, predicted in a report the same day that the Fed will announce additional monetary easing when it meets in June.

Photographer: Andrew Harrer/Bloomberg Prospects for central bank asset purchases increased after a Labor Department report May 4 showed U.S. employers added 115,000 jobs in April, the smallest gain in six months. Europe’s debt crisis is threatening to slow global growth. Ten-year Treasury yields fell to 1.81 percent yesterday, approaching the record low of 1.67 percent set Sept. 23. “In such an uncertain environment, taking out a bit more insurance still looks like the sensible choice for U.S. monetary policy makers,” Hatzius wrote. “We have stuck with our forecast of some additional monetary easing” at the Fed’s policy meeting June 19 to June 20.
