FED HOLDS OFF ON NEW BOND PURCHASES FOR THIRD STRAIGHT MONTH The New York Fed will not inject additional money into the financial system through new Treasury bill purchases for a third consecutive month. It will still buy $14.6 billion in Treasury bills, but only by reinvesting money from maturing securities. Why it matters: The Fed sees no urgent need to add liquidity because financial markets remain relatively stable. Markets expect new purchases to resume in mid-November, potentially providing additional liquidity to the banking system.(彭博社)
