本文为1982年9月27日至1993年12月31日期间的联邦基金利率创建了一系列新的联邦公开市场委员会目标。这个系列的创作灵感来自于Thornton(2005)。通过对FOMC会议记录的逐字分析,桑顿发现,大多数FOMC成员认为,他们早在美联储弱化M1在日常操作程序中的作用之前,就已经开始以基金利率为目标了。新系列的构建使用了联邦公开市场委员会会议的逐字记录、联邦公开市场委员会蓝皮书、公开市场操作和货币市场状况报告,以及作者从1984年3月至1996年12月期间纽约联邦储备银行处理公开市场操作的数据。新系列与Thornton和Wheelock(2000)中提出的另一个广泛使用的系列进行了比较。1989年8月之前和之后的两个序列在目标变化的年代和幅度上有一定的差异。
This paper creates a new series of the FOMC*s Target for the federal funds rate for the period September 27, 1982 through December 31, 1993. The creation of this series was motivated by Thornton (2005). Analyzing the verbatim transcripts of the FOMC, Thornton finds that most of the FOMC believed they began targeting the funds rate even before it deemphasized M1*s role in the Fed*s daily operating procedure. The new series was constructed using the verbatim transcripts of FOMC meetings, the FOMC Blue Book, the Report of Open Market Operations and Money Market Conditions, and data that the author obtained from the Desk for the Federal Reserve Bank of New York dealing with open market operations over the period March 1984 through December 1996. The new series compared with another widely used series presented in Thornton and Wheelock (2000). There are some differences in the dating and magnitude of target changes between the two series prior to but not after August 1989.
