    The fed have been saying it for a long time. It's like saying it might rain in the coming months. It's only a matter of time.

    Most likely the shrinking of balance sheet will be later this year. Fed need to reduce its balance sheet. It had doubled after its unlimited QE that brought us out of the bear market during Covid 2022. Fed had to act fast to reduce its balance sheet while the economy is still good, else it will not have any chance later if economy start to weaken
