The Federal Reserve offered investors another glimpse into its new communication strategy on Wednesday, releasing the second Federal Open Market Committee statement under Chairman Kevin Warsh. The Federal Open Market Committee voted 9-3 to keep the federal funds rate in a target range of 3.5% to 3.75%, marking another meeting without a rate change. Perhaps the most striking departure from previous Fed practice remains what is missing rather than what was added. Like June's statement, Wednesday's release contains no forward guidance about the likely path of interest rates. Wednesday's release disclosed that Governors Beth M. Hammack, Neel Kashkari and Lori K. Logan dissented, preferring to raise the federal funds rate by a quarter percentage point.
