🟢 The U.S. Federal Reserve has ended Quantitative Tightening (QT) and shifted towards balance sheet support — reinvesting maturing securities and purchasing short‑term Treasuries to ensure ample bank reserves and stable funding markets. This means a pause in liquidity withdrawal and technical asset purchases, though it’s not officially labeled QE by the Fed. ļæ½
