However, if the fed is going to by securities, then I hope that it buys quality securities and not ones which are synthetic/secondary and overly opaque. The Fed should buy debt products that continue to make payments sufficient enough to justify the expenses/risk. The Fed should not by products which have systemically failed due to bad finical engineering. I think the move for the FED to buy other types of debt besides treasuries is good.
