"I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

Federal Reserve holdings.
US treasuries (federal bonds): About $650 billion increase since the first of this year.
Total assets (federal bonds, state bonds, corporate bonds -- i.e. derivatives): About 1$ trillion increase since the first of this year.
Don't confuse the latter with a trillion a day loans they're using to keep the repo market liquid. The chart represents regular QE (to infinity). My guess is they will easily hit $10 TRILLION total assets by the years end, and the graph will look like a reverse L.
To put perspective on that, their balance sheet of total assets was less than ONE MILLION in 2008.
