Many participants at oct. 31-nov. 1 Federal Reserve policy meeting felt interest rate increase likely warranted in the near term if U.S. economy remains on track - Minutes

  • Meeting included broad inflation debate, with a few participants saying rate hike should be deferred until data showed inflation was clearly on a path to fed's 2 percent target

  • Many participants said the economy is operating at or above full employment and would continue growing above trend

  • Concerns about inflation were widely shared; "many participants" observed that weak inflation could prove persistent and may reflect drop in inflation expectations

  • Discussion also included possibility fed itself may have undercut inflation expectations by tightening monetary policy while price rises were below its target

  • A couple of participants discussed possibility that "alternative frameworks," such as price level targeting, might be warranted given persistent inflation shortfall
