Geez....that ranks as one of the biggest ever you realize...the desperation to re-inflate smells mightily.

Actually, it was $12.01B in ClownBucks today (after-Christmas sales, of course): <<The Federal Reserve said on Tuesday it added $6.0 billion in temporary reserves to the banking system via eight-day fixed system repurchase agreements and $3.005 billion via two-day repos. The Fed earlier added $3.005 billion in temporary reserves to the banking system through 27-day repos.>> Hmmm, interesting that the 2 day and 28 day repos were exactly the same amount.
