US Federal Reserve Open Market Operations Manager L. Logan said primary bond dealers expect the monetary regulator to cut the QE program over the 3 quarters. Based on this, we can conclude that the Fed will reduce the purchase of assets by $15 billion every month and will complete the program in 8 months. The first increase in the Fed's interest rate will take place 3 quarters after the end of the QE program. If the Fed begins to reduce the stimulus program from January 1, 2022, then in the fall the Central Bank will no longer print money, and in the early summer of 2023 it may raise the discount rate by 0.25%.
