purchases of <A href="http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/quote?ticker=FDCP:IND">commercial paper</A> to $295.1 billion and its loans to
securities firms increased as the central bank uses its balance
sheet to combat the worst financial crisis in seven decades.     </blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&refer=home&sid=a0dIv1Epqo_o">Two other Fed programs also aid in the purchase of commercial

fell to $53.3 billion from $61.9 billion a week earlier and a peak
of $152.1 billion on Oct. 1.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&refer=home&sid=a0dIv1Epqo_o"><P>Bloomberg LP, parent of Bloomberg News, filed a lawsuit
