Date of Rate Change          Rate(%)

October 31, 2007                   7.50

December 11, 2007                7.25

January 22, 2008                   6.50

January 30, 2008                   6.00

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.
