((Housing construction and industrial production remain at high
levels. Unemployment is at a seven year low.
Those factors have many
wondering is the economy too strong?
That was the question before the federal reserve board but in
refusing to take any action to raise interest rates the board at least
hinted there are little signs of inflation.
KNIGHT KIPLINGER/"KIPLINGER WASHINGTON LETTER": THE FEDS ARE NOT LOOKING IN THE
REARVIEW MIRROR THEY ARE LOOKING
IN THEIR TELESCOPE AT WHAT LIES AHEAD AND THEY ARE SEEING A SLOWING OF THE
ECONOMY AND NO NEED TO RAISE INTEREST RATES RIGHT NOW.
Kiplinger says in particular the fed sees evidence of slowing in consumer
spending. Retailers are feeling the results of American's huge
debt burden and the growing number of personal bankruptcies.
While experts say presidential politics played little to no role
in the board's decision.
REGINA BLAKELY/WASHINGTON:
BUT ONE THING THAT PROBABLY DID PLAY A ROLE IN THE OUTCOME WAS
LAST WEEK'S LEAK THAT 8 OUT OF THE 12 FED REGIONAL BANKS WERE LOBBYING FOR A
RATE INCREASE, SOMETHING ALAN GREENSPAN MOST LIKELY DID NOT WELCOME.
KIPLINGER:
I THINK HE WANTED TO SHOW THE LEAKERS THAT THEY COULDN'T PUSH
HIM TOWARDS A DECISION THAT WASN'T RIGHT JUST BECAUSE THEY WENT PUBLIC WITH IT.
So, interest rates which affect consumers on everything from
home equity loans to car loans will stay steady for now. The board meets
