Business Highlights: The Fed's Bond Buys, T-Mobile Breach

Federal Reserve officials last month discussed the timing for beginning to dial back their extraordinary support for the U.S. economy, which has been steadily recovering from the pandemic recession. They made no firm decision on a timetable but appear to be moving toward starting a pullback before years end. The minutes of the Feds July meeting said it concluded that it would be appropriate to acknowledge that the economy was making progress in achieving the Feds goals on inflation and employment.
