US Fed balance sheet, weekly
Weekly US Federal Reserve balance-sheet intelligence panel, 2002-12-18 onward: total assets less eliminations from consolidation (Wednesday level, millions of U.S. dollars, not seasonally adjusted; FRED WALCL, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, H.4.1 Factors Affecting Reserve Balances release, redistributed keyless via FRED fredgraph.csv). Carries 1-week and 52-week changes (levels and percents), the 13-week annualized percent change (the quantitative-tightening pace read), the percent below the trailing 260-week peak (the QT depth gauge), and a contraction_flag marking weeks the balance sheet is smaller than a year earlier. One row per Wednesday x USA; in-window nulls fail loudly, never imputed. Who joins this: rates desks and mortgage lenders join funding costs on year_week + country_code and use the QT pace and contraction_flag as liquidity-regime features; macro models use pct_off_peak as the QT-depth gauge.
