The Fed is holding close to US$8.3T assets now but this amount is down from a peak of US$8.9T.
Let's take a look at the Fed balance sheet breakdown.
There is still an excessive US$1.77T liquidity in the financial system that the banks can't deploy to other investment opportunities except to park the funds in the reverse repo market.
Thus, our conclusion is that the Fed will continue to drain the monetary liquidity in the financial system by selling down its US$8.3T assets and issuing more debts to fund its social and security programmes. Last but not least, we do not see any liquidity risk in the US yet.
