data; the exact tickers are on the sources page.
01
The rate corridor
EFFR and SOFR inside the target range against IORB — Pozsar's anchors of US rates. The corridor is the band; the question is always whether the secured rate stays inside it.
02
Repo against the floor
SOFR, TGCR and BGCR against IORB. In calm markets the segments sit a few basis points apart; the spread between them is the dealer balance-sheet rent.
03
The liquidity waterfall
Reserves against the Treasury's cash balance, the ON RRP and the foreign repo pool — the four claims on the Fed's balance sheet that decide how much cash the system has.
04
The ON RRP drain
Take-up from the $2.55trn peak in December 2022 to roughly zero by mid-2025. This is the buffer that made the second round of QT safe, and it has been spent.
05
The Fed balance sheet
Total assets and bills held outright, through QE, taper and QT. Reserve management purchases restart the bill line from December 2025.
06
Repo volumes
Tri-party, DVP and GCF volumes. The growth is in cleared and sponsored repo, which is where the mandatory-clearing rule will land.
07
Bills at the front end
Four-week and three-month bills against IORB. When bills cheapen relative to the administered rate, cash is abundant relative to paper — and the reverse.
08
Money-fund assets
Money-market fund AUM against the repo footprint — the shadow system's depositors, and the marginal cash lender in every funding market on this page.
09
Ceiling integrity, long run
SOFR minus IORB across the whole sample. September 2019 is the outlier that defines the series — clipped by default so the rest is legible, one click from being shown.
10
EFFR drift
EFFR against IORB — bank-side scarcity, which lags repo. The 2019 lesson was that the unsecured rate is a slow gauge of a fast problem.
