NY Fed to Pump $75 Billion Into Money Markets Daily Through Oct 10

The New York Federal Reserve Bank said Friday it will inject billions into the US financial plumbing on a daily basis for the next three weeks in an effort to prevent a spike in short-term interest rates.
The Fed will offer up to $75 billion a day in repurchase agreements — exchanging secure assets for cash for very short periods — through October 10, it said in a statement.
And this, in turn, is likely a prelude for the fourth round of “Quantitative Easing”, or QE4.
