Uh, only if the fed turns around and tries to sell the bond on the open market. If they just hold it to duration (which they almost certainly will), then they haven't lost anything.

Exactly.

It is amazing the legnths the right is going to right now to cause misinformation and uncertainty in our financial markets.

It's like they want a crash to hurt Biden.

The mark to market applies even at the end of the duration. The value of that bond could be valued at 80 cents on the dollar and the taxpayers will pay the difference.

If bankers and businesses expect these government bailouts paid for by taxpayers then bankers and businesses better step up and start paying more taxes.
