If you had told someone in 2009 that in the year 2021 the Fed would have a $8 TRILLION balance sheet and doing $500 BILLION in reverse repos in a single day just to keep the stock market from crashing they would have laughed at you.

Last time real yields reached such low levels was in 70s and policy makers called for a war on inflation.

A repo is a supply of money. QE is a repo policy
A reverse repo is a monetary drain
QE supplied more money than banks can handle due to capital requirements on cash and/or net interest banks pay on deposits vs 0% banks get for parking reserves at the Fed.
Yes, it is bizarre. https://t.co/TbAiYGbZL3
