Is this the reason why the Fed might be forced to cut rates in March?
We could have: 1. Reverse repo ends (see chart below) 2. BTFP expires 3. Fed cuts (allegedly) 4. QT ends (allegedly) I.e 3 and 4 could counter-balance 1 and 2

China skeptic Lai Ching-te wins Taiwan’s presidential election
Ruling-party candidate Lai Ching-te emerged victorious in Taiwan’s presidential election, a man Beijing has labeled an “instigator of war”, in a vote that has enormous geopolitical implications across not just the Taiwan Strait, but between the US and China, too. Lai’s victory represents an unprecedented democratic milestone: the 1st time a political party in Taiwan has won a 3rd straight presidential election. Kuomintang or KMT, Beijing’s preferred political partner, gained roughly 33% of the vote. Beijing has repeatedly labeled Lai as a “stubborn worker for Taiwan independence” and a dangerous separatist. There are also fears this could in turn influence frosty China-U.S. relations and security in the broader Indo-Pacific region. Source: HolgerZ, Bloomberg, CNBC
