First, how does this help the economy? The money printed and used to purchase the ETF securities will never flow to the companies issuing junk bonds. Ask United Airlines, which had to abandon plans to raise a couple billion in the junk bond market after the market rejected its attempt to issue 11% coupon bonds.

Why didn’t the Fed just buy up that issue? It’s an odd lot compared to what the Fed has printed and thrown at the big banks up to this point.

The second problem is Fed Chairman Jay Powell's conflict of interest. Powell has an $11 million equity stake in Blackrock. For its riskless efforts in buying ETFs for the Fed, Blackrock will be paid $15 million.

And guess what -- The taxpayers are on the hook for the money the Fed prints and transfers to ETFs and to Blackrock when the trade goes bad, which it will. ...
