An increase in the money supply
Fed funds purchased refers to the borrowing of excess reserves by a bank or financial institution from another bank in the federal funds market. This transaction typically occurs overnight and allows the borrowing bank to meet reserve requirements or manage liquidity. The interest rate charged on these transactions is known as the federal funds rate, which is a key tool for monetary policy set by the Federal Reserve.
A tool commonly used by the Federal Reserve is open market operations, which involve the buying and selling of U.S. Treasury bonds. When the Fed buys bonds, it injects liquidity into the banking system, lowering interest rates and stimulating economic activity. Conversely, selling bonds withdraws liquidity, which can raise interest rates and help control inflation. This tool is vital for implementing monetary policy and influencing the overall economy.
Ah, the million dollar question. Well, one of them. It certainly seems that the Fed is not above shady (if not downright illegal) business dealings and able to get away with them every time. As to what the Fed is ACTUALLY doing, I don't think anyone will be able to tell you. Its an organization with zero transparency and it seems like all we can do as citizens and tax payers, is guess.
savings accounts are not subject to the Fed's reserve requirements because savings accounts are not as liquid as checking accounts.
By and large, open-market operations comprise the most powerful tool the Fed has to influence monetary policy.
The Federal Reserve does not have one tool that is more important over another when it comes to monetary policy. There are three tools and all three are equally important. The three tools are open market operations, discount rates, and reserve requirements.
