The deficit was caused by the bank increasing interest rates to combat skyrocketing inflation.

On Friday, the Federal Reserve announced the preliminary results of its 2023 financial statements, which revealed the central bank ran an operating loss of $114.3 billion. The largest it has ever posted.
According to The Wall Street Journal, the massive deficit was caused by the bank jacking up interest rates to combat skyrocketing inflation and could continue as long as the short-term interest rates remain at the same levels.
The increase in interest rates caused the Fed to pay more out on interest-bearing deposits to financial institutions than it brought in on securities it purchased at lower rates trying to help the economy during the COVID-19 pandemic.

What did you think of the SEC this week, essentially blessing Crypto via ETF's? At least Dutch Tulips in the 1600's made a pretty flower.

and yet people fought so damn hard for Biden because he was promised to do better than anything Trump could or would do. Of course the lock-stepping amnesiacs do have memories of convenience!
