                        MONEY STOCK REVISIONS

        Measures of the money stock have been revised to incorporate 
the results of the annual benchmark and seasonal factor review and to 
reflect receipt of other regular data flows.  This release includes 
revised monthly and weekly seasonal factors, as well as comparisons of 
the revised monetary aggregates with previously published data.  The
revisions had no effect on the annual growth rate of M2 over 1998, but
they raised the annual growth rate of M1 by 0.1 percentage point and
lowered that of M3 by 0.1 pecentage point over the past year.

        The benchmark incorporates minor revisions to data reported 
on the weekly and quarterly deposit reports, and it takes account of 
deposit data from call reports for banks and thrifts that are not 
weekly or quarterly deposit reporters.  These revisions to deposit 
data start in 1992.  The benchmark also incorporates historical data 
for a number of money market mutual funds that began reporting for the 
first time during 1998, raising the level of M3 over the years by 
amounts that cumulate to $5 billion by the end of 1998.  Historical
revisions have also been made to RP and Eurodollar series to reflect
better estimates of the holdings of money market mutual funds which
must be netted from the gross RP and Eurodollar series in order to
avoid double counting in M3.  The RP series was revised up by a
maximum of $17-1/2 billion (in the third quarter of 1997) and the
Eurodollar series by a maximum of about $15 billion (in the fourth
quarter of 1989).    

        Seasonal factors for the monetary aggregates have been 
revised, using the benchmarked data through December 1998.  For the
first time, the X-12-ARIMA procedure was used to derive monthly 
seasonal factors.  As usual, the revisions to seasonal factors
slightly changed the pattern of quarterly growth rates of M1, M2, and
M3 in 1998.  The revisions to seasonal factors had no impact on the
annual growth rates of M1 and M2 over 1998, but lowered that of M3 by
0.1 percentage point. 
  
        Revised historical data will soon be available in printed 
form from the Money and Reserves Projection Section, Mail Stop 72, 
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Washington, D.C. 
20551, (202) 452-3062.  Information on how to obtain current and
historical data for the monetary aggregates and their components
through a web site and other electronic means may be found in the note
on Page 2 of this release.

 1.	Growth rates for debt are based on periods beginning and ending one month earlier 
 than for the monetary aggregates, namely,
 August 1998 to November 1998, May 1998 to November 1998,                      and 
 November 1997 to November 1998, respectively.

 Footnotes to Table 1:
 1. Consists of (1) currency outside the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve Banks, and the vaults of depository institutions; 
    (2) travelers checks of nonbank issuers; (3) demand deposits at all commercial banks other than those due to depository 
    institutions, the U.S. government, and foreign banks and official institutions, less cash items in the process of collection
    and Federal Reserve float; and (4) other checkable deposits (OCDs), consisting of negotiable order of withdrawal (NOW)    
    and automatic transfer service (ATS) accounts at depository institutions, credit union share draft accounts and demand deposits
    at thrift institutions. Seasonally adjusted M1 is calculated by summing currency, travelers checks, demand deposits, and
    OCDs, each seasonally adjusted separately.
 2. Consists of M1 plus savings deposits (including money market deposit accounts), small-denomination time deposits (time      
    deposits-including retail RPs-in amounts of less than $100,000), and balances in retail money market mutual funds. Excludes 
    individual retirement account(IRA) and Keogh balances at depository institutions and money market funds. Seasonally adjusted 
    M2 is computed by summing savings deposits, small denomination time deposits, and retail money fund balances, each seasonally 
    adjusted separately, and adding this result to seasonally adjusted M1.                                   
 3. Consists of M2 plus large-denomination time deposits (in amounts of $100,000 or more), balances in institutional money
    funds, RP liabilities (overnight and term) issued by all depository institutions, and Eurodollars (overnight and term) held 
    by U.S. residents at foreign branches of U.S. banks worldwide and at all banking offices in the United Kingdom and Canada. 
    Excludes amounts held by depository institutions, the U.S. government, money funds, and foreign banks and official institutions.
    Seasonally adjusted M3 is calculated by summing large time deposits, institutional money fund balances, RP liabilities, and 
    Eurodollars, each adjusted separately, and adding this result to seasonally adjusted M2.                
 4. Debt: The debt aggregate is the outstanding credit market debt of the domestic nonfinancial sectors--the federal sector 
    (U.S. government, not including government-sponsored enterprises or federally related mortgage pools) and the nonfederal
    sectors (state and local governments, households and nonprofit organizations, nonfinancial corporate and nonfarm noncorporate
    businesses, and farms). Nonfederal debt consists of mortgages, tax-exempt and corporate bonds, consumer credit, bank loans,
    commercial paper, and other loans. The data, which are derived from the Federal Reserve Board's flow of funds accounts,
    are break-adjusted (that is, discontinuities in the data have been smoothed into the series) and month-averaged(that is,
    the data have been derived by averaging adjacent month-end levels). The presentation of the debt data in this release 
    differ, therefore, from the quarterly flow of funds statistics contained in the Federal Reserve releases Z.7 and Z.1.
    In those releases, published levels of credit market debt are measured on a quarter-end basis and contain discontinuities.
