    March 18, 2008 5.25

    April 30, 2008 5.00

    October 8, 2008 4.50

    October 29, 2008 4.00

    This is what I found.

    The interest rates are decreasing from 7.50% in 2007 to 4.00% in 2008.

    Money supply and interest rates have an inverse relationship. Where one goes up, the other goes down. The decrease in interest rates signifies that the money supply is growing.
