Fed funds hovered at 6 - 3 / 4 pct after averaging 6 . 80 pct yesterday .

FED EXPECTED TO SET CUSTOMER zulchzulu The Federal Reserve is expected to intervene in the government securities market to supply temporary reserves indirectly via customer repurchase agreements , economists said . Economists expect the Fed to execute 2 . 0 - 2 . 5 billion dlrs of customer repos to offset pressures from the end of the two - week bank reserve maintenance period today . Some also look for a permanent reserve injection to offset seasonal pressures via an outright purchase of bills or coupons this afternoon . The Federal funds rate opened at 6 - 3 / 8 pct and remained at that level , up from yesterday ' s 6 . 17 pct average .

U . K . RESERVES LIFT HOPES OF FURTHER BASE RATE CUT The record 4 . 9 billion dlrs rise in U . K . Reserves in May to a total 34 . 7 billion has lifted hopes for a further cut in bank base lending rates after the June 11 general election , market analysts said . Sterling would have risen on the much better than expected number but for market nerves about the poll outcome , they said . But the weight of foreign currency and gold reserves now available to the authorities to support the pound should curb any market tendency to panic if U . K . Opinion polls show the ruling Conservative Party ' s lead slipping , they added . " We have been intervening to a very much greater extent than we have done hitherto zulchzulu Chancellor of the Exchequer Nigel Lawson said at a news conference today , commenting on the news of the record reserves rise . He put the U . K . Intervention in the context of the Louvre accord between leading industrial nations to stabilise the dollar , partly through direct intervention on foreign exchanges . " We have been playing a very full part ourselves zulchzulu he said . But market analysts see the recent upward pressure on sterling , and consequent need for official sales to damp down its rise , more in the light of local factors . Steven Bell , chief economist at Morgan Grenfell Securities , said that corporate money has been flowing back into Britain amid hopes of another Conservative government , after fears last autumn of a Labour election victory sent it flooding out . U . K . Portfolio investment is also returning , while foreign buyers see U . K . Growth propects and high bond yields as attractive . They will be strong buyers of U . K . Assets , notably equities , once the election is out of the way , Bell said . Analysts see this pressure as the main hope for lower interest rates

zulchzulu REMAINS INTACT FOR DEBT FUTURES The six basis point rise of the past month in U . S . debt futures may be extended next week by a series of U . S . economic reports , analysts said , as long as the dollar holds firm . " Interest rates have declined by approximately 50 basis points over the last month , largely over indications that inflation is not as high as people had feared and the narrowing U . S . trade balance , in nominal terms zulchzulu Samuel Kahan , chief financial economist with Kleinwort Benson Government Securities , said . Kahan said recent government reports have shown strength in the economy during the first quarter , but his concern is whether the U . S . economy will sustain that strength in the longer term . Weak U . S . economic growth could hurt the dollar , which has become more important to the direction of debt futures than the beneficial impact on interest rates of a sluggish economy . The median trade expectations for Tuesday ' s U . S . Consumer Price Index and Durable Goods reports are up 0 . 4 pct and down 1 . 5 pct , respectively . Meanwhile , the eight billion dlr drop in the M - 1 money supply announced this week was " surprising , much larger than expected zulchzulu according to Kahan . " Unless quickly reversed zulchzulu such a trend " will ensure that June M - 1 growth will be negative zulchzulu Kahan said . Taken in conjunction with M - 2 and M - 3 aggregates which Kahan said have " slowed to a crawl , below Federal Reserve Board annual targets zulchzulu the consequences could be a hint of economic weakness down the road , he said . Based on chart formations , T - bond futures may be poised for further gains , although the advance has been slowed recently , analysts said . September T - bonds " are up almost six points since about May 18

INTEREST RATES HURT U . S . MAY HOUSING SALES Sales of new single - family homes tumbled 14 . 9 pct in May from April levels because of higher mortgage interest rates , analysts said . " There should be another month or two of very weak new home sales but with interest rates stabilizing , sale of new homes should become more stable by mid - summer zulchzulu said economist Lawrence zulchzulu of Wharton Econometrics Inc . The drop in May , to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 616 , 000 units , was the largest since January 1982 , the Commerce Department said . Interest rates on conventional mortgages bottomed out at about 9 . 08 pct in March and rose to about 10 . 7 pct in April , according to Stephen Roach , economist at Morgan Stanley . The effect was to freeze some potential new homebuyers out of the market , he and others said . " The rates moved very suddenly and were certainly unexpected by homebuyers zulchzulu said Cynthia Latta , an economist with Data Resources . " They were so startled , they wanted to hold back and see what would happen zulchzulu The drop in sales of new single - family home sales was sharper than expected , some economists said . " We fully expected a decline but the extent was more than we anticipated zulchzulu said James Christian , chief economist for the U . S . League of Savings Institutions . Christian said there was a sharp rise in May in sales of existing homes , which are generally less expensive than new homes . Latta of Data Resources said strong sales of new condominiums in the Northeast and on the West Coast were reflected in sales of existing but not new homes . Christian of the U . S . League of Savings Institutions said , " Underlying housing demand remains strong . I think the market is going to stabilize and give us a good second half zulchzulu Others were less optimistic , however

SPANISH EMPLOYERS WORRIED BY HIGH INTEREST RATES The head of Spain ' s employers ' federation , Jose Maria Cuevas , said employers were worried about the government ' s monetary policies because high real interest rates were hampering investment . He told a news conference wage pacts signed so far this year were not endangering the government ' s five pct inflation target . The government ' s perceived need to control inflation by keeping a tight rein on credit was unnecessary , he said . High real interest rates were attracting an influx of speculative foreign capital which was undercutting the government ' s target for monetary growth , Cuevas said . Spain ' s most closely - watched measure of money supply , liquid assets in public hands , grew at an annualised rate of 17 pct in March , against 11 . 4 pct in December last year and a target range of 6 . 5 to 9 . 5 pct for 1987 . To combat this , the Bank of Spain has raised its call money rate 14 times so far this year , to 14 . 5 pct at present from 11 . 8 at end - 1986 . Cuevas said employers were heeding the government ' s call to hold wage increases to its five pct inflation target this year , with increases from salary reviews awarded last year and new wage pacts averaging 5 . 6 pct in the first quarter of 1987 . These agreements covered less than 40 pct of Spanish workers , Cuevas said , with the rest still in wage negotiations . He said Spain ' s current wave of strikes mainly affected the state sector , where the government is trying to impose its five pct wage ceiling . Cuevas said employers were also worried about the trend in Spain ' s foreign trade balance . The trade deficit in the first two months of 1987 totalled 233 billion pesetas , a 68 pct increase over the corresponding period last year . However , employers did not

zulchzulu BALANCE OF PAYMENTS IN DEFICIT IN MAY Italy ' s overall balance of payments showed a deficit of 3 , 211 billion lire in May compared with a surplus of 2 , 040 billion in April , provisional Bank of Italy figures show . The May deficit compares with a surplus of 1 , 555 billion lire in the corresponding month of 1986 . For the first five months of 1987 , the overall balance of payments showed a surplus of 299 billion lire against a deficit of 2 , 854 billion in the corresponding 1986 period .

zulchzulu zulchzulu 6 . 1 BILLION MARKS IN TENDER The Bundesbank accepted bids for 6 . 1 billion marks at today ' s tender for a 28 - day securities repurchase pact at a fixed rate of 3 . 80 pct , a central bank spokesman said . Banks , which bid for a total 12 . 2 billion marks liquidity , will be credited with the funds allocated today and must buy back securities pledged on May 6 . Some 14 . 9 billion marks will drain from the market today as an earlier pact expires , so the Bundesbank is effectively withdrawing a net 8 . 1 billion marks from the market with today ' s allocation . A Bundesbank spokesman said in answer to enquiries that the withdrawal of funds did not reflect a tightening of credit policy , but was to be seen in the context of plentiful liquidity in the banking system . Banks held an average 59 . 3 billion marks at the Bundesbank over the first six days of the month , well clear of the likely April minimum reserve requirement of 51 billion marks . The Bundesbank spokesman noted that by bidding only 12 . 2 billion marks , below the outgoing 14 . 9 billion , banks themselves had shown they felt they had plenty of liquidity . Dealers said the Bundesbank is keen to prevent too much liquidity accruing in the market , as that would blunt the effectiveness of the security repurchase agreement , its main open - market instrument for steering market interest rates . Two further pacts are likely this month over the next two weeks . The Bundesbank is currently steering call money between 3 . 6 and 3 . 8 pct , although short - term fluctuations outside that range are possible , dealers said .

zulchzulu SEES NO CHANGE IN MONETARY COURSE The Bundesbank sees no current reason to change monetary course , vice - president Helmut Schlesinger told Reuters in a telephone interview . Schlesinger was responding to questions following remarks yesterday by Bundesbank board member Claus Koehler and West Berlin state central bank president Dieter Hiss , which , dealers said , revived some speculation that German interest rate cuts may once again be under discussion . Schlesinger said he had no comment on the remarks of his two central bank council colleagues . But he added that the last central bank council meeting on April 2 had discussed the economic situation with a mood of " subdued optimism zulchzulu particularly influenced by the news brought by several state central bank presidents . " Much is going better than the impression gained by the public from the January figures , which have been in the meantime superseded zulchzulu he said . German January industrial output fell 3 . 0 pct after a decline of 0 . 9 pct in December . New industry orders fell 1 . 9 pct after they had been unchanged in December . Bank economists said that the two together showed the economy would either stagnate or contract in the first quarter of 1987 . Aside from the economic developments , Schlesinger added , a steady monetary course was important to hold the dollar / mark rate around current levels as Bundesbank president Karl Otto Poehl had said while attending the Washington World Bank / IMF meeting . Asked , however , if the Bundesbank could move to cut rates on repurchase agreements at the setting of the next repurchase tender , due next Tuesday , Schlesinger said , " Since the central bank council gives its opinion on this theme only every 14 days , this is hardly probable zulchzulu Responding to the question whether the Bundesbank had moved away from a policy of targetting monetary growth toward one of targetting currency rates , Schlesinger said he could have no comment on the subject while negotiations were still

ITALY DEFICIT NOT DUE TO LIBERALIZATION - MINISTER Italy ' s Foreign Trade Minister Mario zulchzulu , commenting on speculation in the Italian press , said a sharp balance of payments deficit in May could not be attributed to recent moves liberalizing the purchase of foreign securities . zulchzulu was reacting to suggestions that last month ' s overall 3 , 211 billion lire deficit , which compares with April ' s 2 , 040 billion surplus , could be linked to a May 13 decree abolishing obligatory non - interest - bearing deposits on foreign securities purchases . " The deficit can be better attributed to premature and delayed foreign trade payments and receipts ( leads and lags ) rather than capital outflow to portfolio investment zulchzulu zulchzulu said in a statement . Earlier today the newspaper La Repubblica cited remarks by the Bank of Italy , which announced the deficit for May and said it had been partly caused by " non - banking capital outflows zulchzulu " In practice , it seems that there has been a constant flow of capital to foreign securities or investments outside our borders zulchzulu said the newspaper . But the newspaper added that it was still not possible to say how far the move to abolish foreign securities purchase deposits had affected Italy ' s balance of payments .

FED SEEN ADDING RESERVES VIA SYSTEM REPOS The Federal Reserve is expected to enter the government securities market to supply reserves to the banking system via system repurchase agreements , economists said . Most economists said the Fed would execute three - day system repurchases to meet a substantial need to add reserves in the current maintenance period , although some said a more aggressive add via overnight system repos was possible . Federal funds opened at 7 - 5 / 8 pct and remained at that level late this morning , compared with an average effective rate of 7 . 55 pct Friday .

U . K . MONEY MARKET GETS 103 MLN STG HELP The Bank of England said it operated in the money market this morning , buying 103 mln stg bank bills . The central bank bought in band one 60 mln stg at 9 - 7 / 8 , in band two eight mln at 9 - 13 / 16 , in band three 26 mln at 9 - 3 / 4 and in band four nine mln stg at 9 - 11 / 16 pct . This compares with the bank ' s forecast of a 400 mln stg shortfall today .

CANADA TRADE RISE SEEN AS START OF RECOVERY Canada ' s trade picture has brightened considerably , underscoring economists ' predictions the sector would post a long awaited recovery this year . The federal government reported today that the monthly surplus soared to 1 . 25 billion Canadian dlrs in February , double January ' s 623 mln dlrs surplus and sharply higher than February 1986 ' s 189 mln dlr tally . " Hopefully it ' s the beginning of a trend zulchzulu said Richardson Greenshields of Canada Ltd economist Susan Clark in Toronto . Economists generally don ' t expect such large gains over the next months , but are looking for an upward trend throughout the year . " We thought the trade balance would improve ... over the year , and it certainly looks as if this morning ' s figure is indicative of that zulchzulu commented economist James Donegan at the Toronto securities firm of Midland Doherty Ltd . Statistics Canada reported the surplus was driven by a 23 pct gain in automobile product exports to a record 3 . 2 billion dls in the month . " Recovery in the automotive sector helped push the value of exports up by 5 . 9 pct in February zulchzulu the agency said in its monthly report . Total exports expanded to 10 . 44 billion dlrs from 9 . 85 billion dlrs in February , while imports slipped to 9 . 19 billion dlrs from 9 . 23 billion dlrs . Economists have predicted the 1987 trade surplus would end up three to five billion dlrs higher than last year ' s dismal 10 . 1 billion dlr total . In 1985 the surplus was 17 . 48 billion dlrs . Money market analysts said the positive trade news touched off a modest rally in the Canadian dollar , which rose to 76 . 85 U . S . cts on North American markets early this morning after closing at 76 . 58 cts Wednesday . The currency was hovering around 76 . 78 cts in

FED ADDS RESERVES VIA OVERNIGHT zulchzulu The Federal Reserve entered the U . S . Government securities market to arrange overnight System repurchase agreements , a Fed spokesman said .

AQUINO SAYS MANILA WATCHING INTEREST RATES CLOSELY President Corazon Aquino said the Philippines was closely monitoring interest rates in the wake of Monday ' s record drop on Wall Street and steep declines in Manila and other Asian stock markets . " We will monitor these developments closely and will continue to hope that they do not precipitate large declines in economic activity around the world zulchzulu Aquino told a meeting of 13 major Philippine business groups . " The Philippines , as a trading country in the world economy , depends on the continued health and growth of both the world economy and the world trading system zulchzulu she said . The Manila Stock Exchange composite index plunged 105 . 49 points or 11 . 79 pct by the midday close to 789 . 54 , depressed by the record 508 point fall of the Dow Jones industrial average on Monday . " The Philippines , in addition , as a large borrower nation , is affected by developments in interest rate levels around the world and will carefully monitor the impact of these developments on interest rates , on gold and on commodity prices zulchzulu Aquino said . " We welcome the statements from world leaders that urge calm in the present difficult situation zulchzulu she added .

GERMAN BANKERS ' REMARKS REVIVE TALK OF RATE CUT Remarks by two leading central bankers sparked renewed speculation in financial markets that a cut in the West German three pct discount rate may be under discussion , currency dealers said . Bundesbank board member Claus Koehler said in a speech that monetary growth resulting from speculative capital inflows required cuts in interest rates . Separately , West Berlin state central bank president Dieter Hiss told journalists that the discount rate could fall below its lowest ever point of 2 . 75 pct . He made clear that he was not making a forecast on interest rates , however . Currency dealers here and in the Far East said the dollar gained slight background support from the speculation . But German dealers noted that the Bundesbank kept the 3 . 80 pct rate unchanged at which it offered liquidity to the money market this week , dashing some expectations that it may either offer lower fixed rate money or offer a reduced minimum rate and let the strength of banks ' demands set the allocation rate . It allocated 6 . 1 billion marks in new liquidity , much less than the 14 . 9 billion leaving the market as a prior pact expired . This further weakened sentiment the Bundesbank could move to a more accommodative monetary stance , dealers said . Koehler said in a speech in Surrey , England , speculative capital inflows may cause monetary growth , regardless of whether central banks intervened or exchange rates fell . " In other words , the monetary policy measures required are different from -- and sometimes diametrically opposed to -- those needed when the money stock is increasing as a result of mounting economic activity zulchzulu Though Koehler was known to be the most liberal of the generally monetarist Bundesbank board , his comments marked the first time cuts in rates had been concretely suggested as a counterpoint to overly strong monetary growth , dealers said .

KUWAITI DINAR RATES FIRM , AID WINDOW OPEN Interest rates on Kuwaiti dinar deposits held firm in scattered trading despite a Central Bank decision to revive limited funding lines , dealers said . The Central Bank , which last Tuesday shut a daily aid window through which it lent funds of up to one year , reopened the facility for three month money , which was available at seven pct , they said . It offered one month funds at seven pct through swap facilities , dealers said . Today ' s Central Bank action , combined with sales of dollars by some banks , helped ease a recent credit squeeze engineered by the monetary authority to stem a rush for the U . S . Currency arising from attractive U . S . Interest rates and Gulf tension , dealers said . However , as one dealer noted : " The market is still unsettled zulchzulu Overnight funds , bid at 20 pct at the outset of business , traded up to 30 pct before easing as liquidity dragged offers down to 10 pct by the close . Tomorrow - next , for which buy / sell quotes started at 30 , 20 pct , ended at 14 , eight . Spot - next was indicated at 8 - 1 / 2 , seven after opening bids of 10 . Dealers quoted one - week at eight , seven against an early 9 - 1 / 2 , 7 - 1 / 2 . One month rates were at the same level after trade at eight then 8 - 1 / 2 . Dealers quoted three months at seven , 6 - 3 / 4 pct and six - month to one year funds at seven , six pct . They reported offshore offers of overnight at 10 , tomorrow - next at eight and one year at 6 - 1 / 2 pct towards the close . The Central Bank fixed its dinar exchange rate steady at 0 . zulchzulu / 67 to the dollar , against yesterday

BAKER SEEN WINNING GERMAN INTEREST RATES BATTLE The United States appears to have won a transatlantic battle by forcing the Bundesbank to trim interest rates , European economists said . But they added Washington set the stakes high by testing the limits of the Louvre accord while global stock markets were plunging . West German Finance Minister Gerhard Stoltenberg and U . S . Treasury Secretary James Baker reaffirmed their commitment to currency stability at a secret meeting yesterday in Frankfurt , according to official statements released late Monday . Only 13 hours after the statements were released , the Bundesbank reduced short - term interest rates by offering banks liquidity at a fixed bid rate of 3 . 80 pct , down from a 3 . 85 pct facility rate offered last week . While the two ministers were meeting with Bundesbank president Karl Otto Poehl , the central bank had also added money market liquidity repeatedly , signalling it did not want a strong rise in the tender allocation rate on Tuesday . " It ' s round one to the Americans , " said Richard Reid , senior European economist for brokers UBS / Philips and Drew in London . But Reid added , " We shouldn ' t forget that it has taken one of the biggest stock market crashes in decades to get the West Germans to cut their security repurchase rate by a 0 . 05 percentage point zulchzulu Over the weekend , criticism by Baker of earlier tightening of West German monetary policy led to a sharp dollar fall and fuelled speculation that the Louvre accord was no longer valid . Six leading industrial nations agreed under February ' s Louvre Accord to stabilise currencies and coordinate monetary policies . It has since been reaffirmed by the Group of Seven - the US , Japan , West Germany , Britain , France , Italy and Canada . The Frankfurt meeting on Monday soothed currency markets and the dollar gained over two pfennigs in after hours trading in New York . At the Frankfurt

zulchzulu SAYS CRITICISM NOT " ONE - WAY STREET " Finance Minister Gerhard Stoltenberg said he was surprised by recent criticism of West German economic policies voiced by U . S . Treasury Secretary James Baker but added that the criticism was not purely one - sided . Stoltenberg told the West German Trade and Industry Association ( zulchzulu ) that before a meeting with Baker on Monday , " There had been surprising notes of criticism ( from the United States zulchzulu He added . " Criticism is not a one - way street zulchzulu He did not elaborate , but Bonn has often called on the U . S . To reduce its federal budget deficit . Over the weekend Baker had criticised West German economic policies , saying that rises in domestic interest rates here were not in the spirit of last February ' s Louvre pact to stabilise currencies . Stoltenberg told the zulchzulu that his meeting on Monday with Baker had resolved differences between the two countries . At a news conference earlier on Tuesday Stoltenberg had declined to comment specifically on Baker ' s criticisms , but he had said that after three hours of discussions on Monday , " one remark or another has been clarified zulchzulu
