Title: liquidity pump today

Anyone know why the Fed needed 20 billion in repos today, with none expiring? It's not like rates are even at the target; they are well below around 3.18. So why the burst or money?

Usually, such a pump would be the direct result of "something bad" like a terrible employment report.

And the delayed the announcement too, probably to see just how much they needed to add in after the conference call with the other players.

Any thoughts?
