Apparently last night's reverse repo operation was the largest since 2017. Is the fed "churning"? Continuous debt rollovers?

They've been buying corporate bonds since last year. I think that is a first in their history.

The FED Buying Corporate Bonds Has Hurt The Economy

Oct. 24, 2020 2:05 PM ET

Please Note: Blog posts are not selected, edited or screened by Seeking Alpha editors.
Summary
  • The Federal Reserve is operating outside of their charter by buying corporate bonds.
  • These purchases are harmful to the middle class and economy as a whole.
The Fed is buying corporate bonds on the secondary market. This is important to understand, because it tells you what the Fed is actually trying to do. They're providing liquidity to the corporate bond market to backstop corporate bond traders. This is about helping Wall Street. This isn't about corporate solvency or saving jobs. If the Fed were buying new debt or retiring existing debt, that could directly strengthen a company's balance sheet. But they're not doing that. They're hardly even buying bonds of companies in trouble vs investment grade...
