(Reuters) - The New York Federal Reserve said it would make additional purchases of mortgage-backed securities on Friday totaling $15 billion in two operations and would buy at least $100 billion in mortgage bonds next week.
The purchases are part of its planned $200 billion of MBS purchases announced earlier this week intended to address market disruptions associated with the coronavirus outbreak.
