Why aren’t they bringing back the 30 year yet, even though interest rates are down. Interesting that the Fed didn’t address it further, and don’t count on them not bringing it back at some time in the future.

Crowding out will not be a problem for the foreseeable future as the stock market is not “hot” and there are many that are looking for a “solid” return. Also, the amounts are still small compared to the overall market. This theory is not fact and may not occur at all.

Regarding politics and the Treasury, the debt ceiling will have to be lifted soon. As this is done by congress, there democrats will probably have something to say before they approve the increase. (They have to eventually approve it as otherwise the US Government would default on their debt)
