I'll answer the easy part.vincecate wrote:I think the US deficit is really well over $1 trillion per year and that the Fed will end up printing/buying more than $1 trillion per year. I think people will start to realize it won't "normalize its balance sheet" or even slow the printing. At some point people will start to flee the bond bubble (the Fed has driving pries to crazy levels) and the Fed will be about the only buyer.
