WASH­ING­TON—Fed­eral Re­serve of­fi­cials meet­ing in Sep­tember laid the ground-work to raise short-term in­ter­est rates “rel­a­tively soon,” ac­cord­ing to min­utes, al­though they strug­gled to rec­on­cile in­ter­nal di­vi­sions over the tim­ing of the next rate move.

“Some par­tic­i­pants be­lieved that it would be ap­pro­pri­ate to raise the tar­get range for the fed­eral funds rate rel­a­tively soon if the la­bor mar­ket con­tin­ued to im­prove and eco­nomic ac­tiv­ity strength­ened, while some oth­ers pre­ferred to wait for more con­vinc­ing ev­i­dence that in­fla­tion was mov­ing to­ward the Com­mit­tee’s 2% ob­jec­tive,” the Fed said in min­utes of the Sept. 20-21 meet­ing, re­leased Wednes­day on the usual three-week lag.

9월 FOMC 의사록이 공개되었습니다. 크게 우려할만한 내용은 없었습니다. 요약해보면..
- 금리인상시기 가까워짐
- 금리인상을 주장하는 의원수 증가 예상
- 9월 금리동결 원인은 인플레 압력 미진
- 인플레 압력 미진은 강달러와 저유가 때문
- 금리 인상 필요, 하지만 물가상승률 2% 하회할 것
- 최근 유가가 $50 내외 이므로 인플레 압력 충분할듯
- 12월 금리 인상 가능성 69.9%
