The Fed in March used the claim that market dysfunction was why they announced this program. That is a bad rationalization when you are talking about these high quality bonds because it assumes there is not enough private buyers for them which is nonsense. In fact, the deeper the Fed gets involved, the WORSE the market functioning will become. Look at the Japanese bond market where on some days JGB’s don’t trade.

These companies don’t need a lower cost of capital in order to prosper but instead the Fed is further limiting the investment opportunities of investors and created further distortions in the pricing of private sector assets.
