.There is more than one Fed put.Early this month, I discussed the one that saved equity markets. It’s likewise one that supports the real economic situation and also is actually the one that 99% of monetary commentary is written about, especially lately.What concerns me is actually the other one: It is actually the call on the Fed or even other main financiers to buy bonds when liquidity fades away.
