According to the decisions taken following the results of the September meeting of the Federal Reserve, there will be a reduction in the monthly volume of bond purchases in the near future. According to the chairman of the regulator, Jerome Powell, the Federal Reserve may announce the beginning of the curtailment of the easing program during the next November meeting. There is a high probability, Powell said, that this will happen if strong statistics on the US labor market are published. At the same time, the curtailment of the asset repurchase program may happen closer to the middle of next year.

In the meantime, the Fed will continue to buy back assets totaling $120 billion every month.

The regulator's interest rate on federal loan funds remained at the same level - from 0% to 0.25% per annum, coinciding with analysts' preliminary forecasts and market participants. At the same time, the increase in the key rate may occur earlier than planned since half of the Central Bank's management members see the need to increase the price of borrowed funds already next year.

By the way, the reaction of experts and market strategists to the comments of the Federal Reserve turned out to be extremely ambiguous. Most of them said that the Fed has returned to the starting point because it did not say when and how much it will curtail incentives. At the same time, experts stressed that the existing financial conditions for the markets are still quite soft.
