Fed officials expect it will be ‘some time’ before it starts tightening policy, minutes show
Federal Reserve officials indicated at their last meeting that the pace of asset purchases is unlikely to change anytime soon while the central bank pursues its economic goals.
The Federal Open Market Committee on Wednesday released minutes from the March 16-17 meeting as investors looked for indications about where policy may be heading in the future. The meeting summary indicated that while officials saw the economy gaining substantially, they see much more progress needed before ultra-easy policy changes. Members said the $120 billion a month in bond purchases “were providing substantial support to the economy.”
it's too bad that you fail to explain that the FRBNY buys those bonds from the primary dealers who are given straight cash to do whatever they want with so of course you say the "economy" is doing great...if you are on the list in cap#2 it's great..otherwise fuck you
“Participants noted that it would likely be some time until substantial further progress toward the Committee’s maximum-employment and price-stability goals would be realized and that, consistent with the Committee’s outcome-based guidance, asset purchases would continue at least at the current pace until then.” The adherence to “outcome-based guidance” is a pledged that the Fed will wait until the economy shows “substantial further progress” toward the dual goals of full employment and inflation that runs around 2%. The guidance is a shift in policy for the Fed, in which it previously would adjust policy in anticipation of inflation.
The Fed’s policymaking arm voted to keep short-term borrowing rates anchored near zero and to continue buying at least $120 billion in bonds each months. In addition, the committee raised its outlook for economic growth and inflation ahead. The median outlook for GDP tin 2021 went to 6.5%, a big upgrade from the 4.2% expectation in the December projections.
same story here for years--always better in the second half of this year or next...
During a meeting with the media a few hours before the minutes were released, Chicago Fed President Charles Evans said it would take “months and months” of higher inflation “before I’m even going to have an opinion on whether this is sustainable or not.” However, Chairman Jerome Powell and other central bank leaders have said they view the rise in rates as a reflection of stronger growth expectations rather than uncomfortable inflation pressure.

stronger growth expectations that you, IMF, World Bank and every other central bank and 'economist' keeps pimping.
Tesla Delays Delivery For Refreshed Model S And Model X Vehicles
Tesla is reportedly delaying deliveries of both its refreshed Model X and refreshed Model S vehicles, according to Wednesday report from electrek.
Those hoping for refreshed version of the two mainstays in Tesla's lineup are going to have to wait as the automaker is "experiencing delays in bringing the vehicles to production," according to the report. The new models had been unveiled in January and Elon Musk had said that deliveries would begin "within a few weeks". That, obviously, didn't happen - and this marks yet another timeline miss to add to Tesla's litany of such delays.
Musk had also said in late February that the company was "almost done" retooling its production lines to produce the vehicles. "Model S/X production lines are almost done with the retooling and will be aiming for max production next quarter. There is high demand, so we are soon going to need to go back to two shifts. Please recommend friends for recruiting," the e-mail read.
6 weeks later, there is still no report of any new Model S or X deliveries. Many people who bought refreshed Model S vehicles are seeing their delivery dates pushed back "by a few months," the report notes. "Most of them had March and April estimated delivery dates, but they have now been pushed to a May-July timeframe."
electrek speculates that the delay could actually have to do with Tesla's software. Recall, we wrote about the company's most recent, horribly embarrassing test of its "Full Self Driving" software here.
Among the most "controversial" claims that Musk has made over the last couple of years, nothing quite tops the list like his bold predictions for Full Self Driving and his company's autonomous capabilities. Those topics were also debunked thoroughly in a video we wrote about days ago, which compared Musk's public statements on FSD - which he has been charging customers thousands for, for years - and the harsh reality of where the company's "feature" stands today.

BACN is a communications relay and gateway system that provides military commanders with a versatile means of exchanging information from multiple air, ground, and maritime sources, to include host nation, joint, and coalition forces. It facilitates the transport of both voice and data across the battlespace enabling network connectivity among weapon systems, sensors, warfighters, decision makers, platforms, and command centers at all echelons of command and control (C2). BACN reduces line-of-sight issues, provides greater range for communication links, and provides commanders with versatile and flexible communications support across the range of military operations as well as a reliable means of communications between edge users across different waveforms and data formats.

Ambassador to UK locked out of Embassy
Thursday, April 8
1:30 a.m. Myanmar's ambassador to the U.K. has been locked out of his country's Embassy in London, Reuters reports, weeks after he broke with the military government by calling for the release of detained leader Aung San Suu Kyi.
"An ambassador is a diplomat," Ambassador Kyaw Zwar Minn wrote in a statement dated March 8 and published on the Embassy's website. "He therefore chooses the diplomatic path. The answer to the current crisis can only be at the negotiation table." "Diplomacy is the only response and answer to the current impasse," the ambassador also wrote. The statement remains on the Embassy website.
A Twitter video purportedly shows the scene outside the Embassy on Thursday local time.
So apparently the police can’t enter the embassy as it counts as foreign (Burmese) soil. They’re telling people to leave or they’ll fine them for breaking Covid regs.
The Ambassador is asking people to stay (socially distanced) but the police say no.#WhatsHappeningInMyanmar pic.twitter.com/xad6hRZ38u
