The darker the screen gets, the more money the fed is essentially printing.

When theres more black than blue, that means the world ends and the Fed is borderline hyper-inflation helicopter dropping money, which means no one will buy treasury bonds so the only way to fund everything is to canabalize ourselves and print print like you never printed before, the day this chart goes completely black will not be good.

By the way, I saw it here: seekingalpha com/article/811031-fed-trapped­-by-its-long-duration-portfoli­o

I am not convinced the Fed is trapped, since it offers a real yield to keep deposits in place from member banks, and every new transaction it makes, is both a credit and a debit to its accounts and Treasury deficits splash new profits and thus grow deposits around the banking system.

I keep thinking Russ Winter doesn't know how banks print or else I am missing something about what he means.

I like it. I notice years to maturity is not a linear scale. It stretches the near term times to a big portion of the graph. It is almost like log scale beyond one year.
