Nobody is borrowing from the Fed at zero.
The Fed is holding onto the bonds, but haven't bought more for over a year, stimulus is over.

The Fed is holding onto the bonds, but haven't bought more for over a year, stimulus is over. That may be "officially" true, but it doesn't explain the angst whenever the Fed is mentioned as far as raising interest rates, which may not be zero but are still at a point to be effectively non-existent as far as Joe Blow is concerned and trying to keep his savings from going South.
