Fed Buys Treasury Bills Outright In 'Bill Pass'

.

NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--The Federal Reserve Bank of New York confirmed Friday that it is buying outright U.S. Treasury bill securities maturing May 11, 2006, through Aug. 10, 2006.

The Fed said it's seeking dealer responses by 11 a.m. EST. The securities will be for delivery Monday.

The Fed often buys outright Treasury notes and bonds - commonly known in the market as a "coupon pass" - to permanently add reserves to the banking system. It buys bills less frequently, in what's called a "bill pass."

None of the definitions (mostly redundant) of inflation that you presented include the defining feature of inflation: persistence. A price that fluctuates up and then down does not represent inflation and deflation -- it represents price fluctuation. The concepts inflation and deflation do not refer to transient price movements in either direction.
