So there’s a ton of money in the economy but no way to actually make it liquid short term short of the fed, indicating that maybe the money on the books has a better chance of suddenly vanishing into thin air than anyone is comfortable with?

Where have I heard this before?

Well if it’s all loaned out and invested away you can’t exactly conjure it back home every night. But yeah, essentially the Fed is trying to stay ahead of this issue they were the cause of.
