FED SHOCKS MARKETS: BALANCE SHEET SHRINKAGE DELAYED?
Federal Reserve Governor signals flexibility on quantitative easing. The Fed's balance sheet reduction is necessary. However, this does not prevent massive asset purchases during economic turmoil. A substantial dollar fluctuation is required to curb inflation effectively. Central bank independence ensures sound policy, but collaboration with the Treasury is vital during crises. Decisions must be driven by economic necessity, not external pressures. Tighten or loosen based on the economy's needs, nothing else.
This is not financial advice.
