Greece Prime Minister’s Statement In Cannes

Date 03/11/2011

As you all know, on the 26th and 27th of October we took crucial historical decisions for Europe and for the eurozone. These decisions of course also were crucial and are crucial for Greece. I believe in the many benefits they have for Greece: benefits for growth, benefits for lowering the burden of debt on the Greek people, benefits for a strong package of support for the next few years, where we can actually put our house in order and make Greece a viable economy.

Federal Reserve Issues Federal Open Market Committee Statement

Date 02/11/2011

Information received since the Federal Open Market Committee met in September indicates that economic growth strengthened somewhat in the third quarter, reflecting in part a reversal of the temporary factors that had weighed on growth earlier in the year. Nonetheless, recent indicators point to continuing weakness in overall labor market conditions, and the unemployment rate remains elevated. Household spending has increased at a somewhat faster pace in recent months. Business investment in equipment and software has continued to expand, but investment in nonresidential structures is still weak, and the housing sector remains depressed. Inflation appears to have moderated since earlier in the year as prices of energy and some commodities have declined from their peaks. Longer-term inflation expectations have remained stable.
