After months of pretending all was well, the Federal Reserve has quietly slowed its quantitative tightening by 80%, signaling a seismic shift beneath the surface. Why now? Taylor Kenney states it’s not about inflation or economic strength—it’s about propping up a $29 trillion bond market that's being held together by overleveraged hedge funds.

“The only thing holding up the most important bond market in the world... is borrowed money and a hope that the Fed will catch the fall.”

This isn’t QE. It’s crisis management in disguise.

The truth? Hedge funds are sitting on over $1 trillion in risky trades, propping up the Treasury market with extreme leverage. And just like in 2020, the Fed is preparing to bail them out again—because if even one domino falls, the entire financial system could unravel.

“This is the quiet phase of the global reset... and the rest of the world is watching.”
