Federal Reserve Tiny Balance Sheet Reduction Last Week

The Fed's balance sheet declined $1.4 billion last week, none of it treasuries. The Fed hasn't reduced anything in October yet. It still has $50 billion total and $30 billion in treasuries to go. It's already behind the curve, needing to reduce $39 billion in treasuries to catch-up. It will fall behind again this month because only $23 billion in treasuries mature.
