WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- The Federal Reserve is buying about half of the gross issuance of mortgage-backed securities and a quarter of the monthly gross issuance of coupon Treasury securities, according to Simon Potter, executive vice president at the New York Fed. In a speech to the Forecasters Club of New York, Potter says the MBS purchases are down from about two-thirds from the MBS buys the Fed made in 2009. Potter said the Fed operations are going smoothly and market liquidity is holding up well. He also said there's large uncertainty in primary dealer expectations on the Fed's portfolio by the end of 2014, with the difference in expectations being around $500 billion.

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) - Economic conditions could emerge "before long" that would allow the Federal Reserve to slow the pace of its $85 billion-a-month asset purchase program, said Sandra Pianalto, president of the Cleveland Federal Reserve Bank, on Wednesday. In a speech to the CFA Society in Cleveland, Pianalto said that the economy appears to be on a steady growth path and the potential risks of the asset purchases "appear manageable" at the moment. "I would regard a slowing in the pace of asset purchases to be a welcome direction for monetary policy, if it resulted from a significant improvement in the outlook for labor market conditions," Pianalto said.
