Former New York Fed Expert: Powell May Announce $45 Billion Bond Purchase Plan

Former New York Fed expert Mark Cabana predicts that, in addition to the widely anticipated 25 basis point rate cut, Fed Chair Powell will announce a $45 billion per month Treasury bill purchase program at the upcoming December FOMC meeting. This plan, set to begin in January 2026, aims to inject liquidity and prevent a further surge in repo market rates. Cabana warns that markets are underestimating the scale of the Fed's balance sheet actions, as money market rates indicate bank reserves are no longer "abundant." The move is seen as necessary to address liquidity shortages caused by previous quantitative tightening. UBS also forecasts a similar $40 billion monthly purchase program. The policy shift comes amid a critical leadership transition at the Fed, with Powell's term ending and expectations rising for Kevin Hassett to potentially succeed him.
