The only thing that might permit the Fed to carry such a balance sheet will be continuing turmoil in Europe (which is increasingly likely a sure bet). Capital flight from there may find the US taking the path of Japan for the immediate future until such a time that Europe finally collapses, and turn attention to the next "domino" in the row.
