The Federal Reserve started buying massive amounts of Treasuries and is gearing up its purchases of mortgage debt. The Fed will buy as much as $300 billion in long-term Treasurys in the next six months. It will increase it’s purchases of mortgage-backed securities guaranteed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to $1.25 trillion, up from $500 billion. The printing presses got an injection of high octane yesterday. The FED will buy or lend against everything from corporate debt, mortgages and consumer loans to government bonds. |
