【The Federal Reserve's reverse repurchase mechanism attracted $473.5 billion on the last day of 2024, the largest scale since early summer】Golden Finance reports that a large amount of cash flowed into the Federal Reserve's reverse repurchase tool on Tuesday, the last trading day of 2024, pushing the usage of this tool to the highest level since early summer. Money market funds and other eligible institutions deposited $473.5 billion on the Fed's balance sheet. This significant increase in usage is not surprising, as at the end of the quarter and year, companies typically make short-term adjustments to manage their balance sheets, leading to large cash inflows to the Fed. The cash inflow on Tuesday was the highest since the last trading day of the second quarter, which saw an inflow of $664.6 billion, and also surpassed the $465.6 billion at the end of the third quarter on September 30.
