What did saying the Fed continues to put downward pressure on long end yields via “socializing” money markets mean? Combo of standing 5bps RRP rate (was always zero) & increase of IOER to 15bps. ON repo yield EXCEEDS 3MO bills. #FED#REPO#RRP#SOFR cont…
…now MM funds have no incentive to buy bills in the free market due to standing 5bps floor. On the other side w/the IOER ceiling set @ 15bps T1 banks have built in perpetual 5bps arb borrowing @ 10bps in FF market & earning 15bps on IOER. #FED#IOER#EFFR
