BREAKING: The Fed’s balance sheet surged +$24.4 billion in the week ending December 24th, posting the biggest jump since the March 2023 Banking Crisis.



This marks the 3rd-consecutive weekly increase for a total of +$45.5 billion.

As a result, the Fed’s total assets are up to $6.58 trillion, the highest since the end of October.

The Fed is projected to buy $35-$55 billion in Treasury bills each month in 2026.

That would make ~$550 billion in total purchases this year, bringing the Fed’s balance sheet back above $7.0 trillion, the highest since October 2024.

The Federal Reserve’s balance sheet is officially expanding again.
