Very interesting article. Thanks Matt! How much
does the fed plan to unwind - $4.18T? Is it typical for the
Fed to have over $4T in treasuries and mortgage backed securities.
Did the fed 'print' money to buy these securities which seems
to me would be an inflationary move? If the Fed sells
$4T in these instruments, does that mean the national debt is
reduced by $4T? Do we have an economist here
that can explain what we should expect as selling these instruments
pulls liquidity out of the (stock?) market?
