A final point about Treasury activity during the September quarter. In addition to the huge proportion of foreign acquisitions, the Federal Reserve increased its own portfolio of Treauries during the period at an annual rate of $74.1 billion. This means that during the quarter, the Fed and foreign investors absorbed $278.2 billion (annual rate), versus total issuance at an annual rate of $208.9 billion. Obviously, this had a very favorable influence on Treausry yields during the quarter, although an influence certainly lacking in its "free-market" characteristics. gillespieresearch.com
