#WalshSaysToCautiouslyShrinkBalanceSheet Kevin Warsh Advocates Gradual Balance Sheet Reduction as Fed Nears $6.6T
Kevin Warsh, former Fed Governor and one of former President Trump’s nominees for Fed Chair, has consistently advocated for gradually reducing the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet to restore “normal” monetary policy, limit distortions, and reduce the Fed’s dominance in markets. As of early February 2026, the Fed’s balance sheet stands near $6.61 trillion, down from a peak of roughly $9 trillion, with slight weekly fluctuations due to reserve management and modest T-bill purchases.

#WalshSaysToCautiouslyShrinkBalanceSheet — What It Means for Markets & Crypto
When Christopher Waller (often confused in hashtags as “Walsh”) suggests cautiously shrinking the balance sheet, he’s talking about the Federal Reserve reducing its asset holdings slowly — not aggressively.
This process is known as Quantitative Tightening (QT). It means:
Letting government bonds mature without reinvesting
Gradually reducing liquidity in the financial system
Avoiding sudden shocks to stocks, bonds, and crypto
🏦 Current Fed Policy Context
Fed Funds Rate: Still
