Porkopolis Economics covers macroeconomics, money, and sports from the creator of the Crypto Voices podcast, Matthew Mezinskis.
In this episode, Matt provides an insightful overview of the Federal Reserve's balance sheet and its evolution over time.
Key points: - The Fed's balance sheet represents the total assets owned by the central bank and has expanded significantly during major events like wars, financial crises, and the COVID-19 pandemic through asset purchases and quantitative easing to provide liquidity. - The Fed is currently trying to normalize its balance sheet, but recent rate cuts and projections of lower interest rates may require the Fed to reverse course and start expanding its balance sheet again through asset purchases to drive down rates.
