Fed T-bill purchases create a quiet liquidity floor for U.S. equities

Conviction: 77% · Horizon: 6M · 2026-04-13
Ongoing reserve-management purchases should keep financial conditions loose and support risk assets

Even after tapering, the expected steady-state pace of Treasury bill purchases remains positive, preserving bank reserves, easing funding stress, and limiting rate pressure. That combination supports leverage, stabilizes market plumbing, and keeps equities relatively attractive versus bonds.

Instrument Side Target Reason
IWM Long We believe persistent reserve growth and continued Treasury bill buying can keep liquidity loose enough to favor cyclical and rate-sensitive U.S. equities, with small caps offering stronger upside if funding stress stays contained and momentum broadens.
