Joe Deaux, TheStreet's Economist comments, "Several Fed officials -- presidents of the New York, Boston, Cleveland, Minneapolis and Chicago Fed banks -- last week reiterated their commitment to maintain the current pace of monthly purchases in mortgage-backed securities and longer-term Treasuries. The speeches came amid speculation among market participants as to when the central bank would begin to scale back its purchasing programs on improving U.S. economic data. While some analysts and economists have suggested the Fed may slow easing efforts in 2013, there is growing consensus that central bankers won't make changes to short-term interest rates and current quantitative easing until at least 2014."
