red sox 777 06/15/20 8:11:19 PM #256: | https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/files/monetary20200615a1.pdf This is today's press release giving details of the Federal Reserve's plan to buy $750 billion in corporate bonds. This along with the recent extension of the Paycheck Protection Plan for small businesses from 8 to 24 weeks, which is probably providing a windfall to businesses in areas not heavily impacted by the pandemic, is a huge amount of money the government is throwing at the economy. And of course, the Fed has already spent (printed) like 2 trillion buying government bonds to add money to the system. Given all this money printing going on, I agree that it's only fair to extend the $600 per month payments. Why should employees of large employers miss out? --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! ... Copied to Clipboard! |
