NatSec Source: Federal Reserve MYSTERY of All the Financial REPOS: New York City REAL ESTATE IS IMPLODING

Federal Reserve has been doing massive repo financing “transfusions” of $$$$ capital into NYC banking sector…WHY? Now the answer has come forth: NYC REAL ESTATE IS IMPLODING, IN ALL MARKET SEGMENTS: COMMERCIAL, RESIDENTIAL, RETAIL, LEASES, PRE-LEASE BUILDING FINANCING, the whole rotten ‘Big Apple’ is under tremendous stress

Yesterday we reported that with the Fed’s first oversubscribed term repo in three weeks…

… coupled with a surge in amount of overnight repo submission, indicated that the funding situation in the repo market had again deteriorated sharply, which was odd since we are now two weeks into the new year and further away from the time when the repo market was supposedly in distress due to the year-end funding constraints.

Indeed, something appears amiss, because as Curvature Securities’ Scott Skyrm writes in his daily Repo Market Commentary note, the total overnight and term Fed RP operations on Friday were greater than on year end! On year-end, the Fed had pumped a total of $255.95 billion into the market verses $258.9 billion on Friday.

And just like that, the repo market is on the fritz once again.

More than two weeks after the last oversubscribed term repo operation on December 16, moments ago the Fed announced that Dealers are once again scrambling for liquidity, submitting $41.12BN in securities ($30.7BN in TSYs, $10.42BN in MBS) into today’s 2-week repo operation, which was oversubscribed hitting the maximum operation limit of $35BN.

Today’s oversubscription was ominous because while the liquidity shortage into year-end was expected, and justified the barrage of term repos ahead of the “turn”, the liquidity shortage was supposed to normalize after the new year. Alas, that appears to not have happened, and today’s submission was the highest since Dec 16.
