On October 21st, Bank of America declared that the risk of the Fed's balance sheet reduction in October has grown. The economists at Wrightson ICAP pointed out signs of funding stress in the repurchase market, which may lead the Fed to announce at next week's rate decision that it will no longer continue to reduce its bond holdings. Fed Chair Powell hinted earlier this month that he is awaiting the appropriate time to end the balance sheet reduction, and last week's slight turmoil in the repurchase market may be a crucial signal. The institution also anticipates that the Fed will start purchasing Treasury bonds to offset the maturing mortgage-backed securities, thereby maintaining the overall balance sheet size. In summary, as the Fed transitions to a neutral policy stance, the market's monthly supply of short-term government bonds may decrease by approximately $20 billion. (FXStreet)
