The Fed's reverse repo facility—Wall Street’s liquidity buffer—has collapsed from $2.5 trillion to under $100 billion. And as the Treasury floods markets with short-term debt, there’s no one left to catch the fallout. Money markets are stretched, foreign buyers have fled, and now regulators are gutting post-crisis protections to force U.S. banks to absorb the risk.

This isn’t a tightening cycle. It’s a slow-motion crisis—and the fix may already be underway under the guise of “stealth QE.”

Inside: charts they don’t want you to see, and the one asset that still holds when paper promises crumble.
