The Fed is just about crapping in their pants? and sounding the alarm on liquidity risks, that if everyone wants out of bonds and loan mutual funds the same time it could spell disaster?
Business Insider
In the Minutes from the January FOMC meeting, the Federal Reserve addressed the financial situation, and noted that the increasing role of bond and loan mutual funds could pose a liquidity risk if everyone tries to get out of the market at the same time.
Here’s the relevant passage, first flagged by Bloomberg’s Matt Boesler:
“Finally, the increased role of bond and loan mutual funds, in conjunction with other factors, may have increased the risk that liquidity pressures could emerge in related markets if investor appetite for such assets wanes.”
Hopefully they will go down and taste the bottom of the boots of the people.
