From Wall Steet Journal. Have fun! :-)
The Federal Reserve's statements reflect how the members of the central
bank's Federal Open Market Committee perceive the economy. Their words
have world-wide impact and the slightest changes and nuances are
scrutinized for clues about where interest rates may be headed.
The June 30 statement, issued after the fourth meeting of the year,
announced that the Fed was raising its key short-term interest rate by
one-quarter point to 1.25%, its first increase in four years. Committee
members assessed the economy as solid and said the job market has
improved, but appeared more concerned than before with possible effects
of inflation. Below is a look at differences between the May statement
and the June one.
