The Fed is not pleased with this answer. In addition to its “Deferred Asset” gambit, it frequently and publicly asserts that negative capital does not matter if you are a money-printing central bank. The idea seems to be that a central bank can always print up more money. The Fed further declares that it is not in business to maximize profits. Even were all this true, it fails to change the correct capital number: negative $121 billion.

The MBA in me would call that a current liability.
The article does not allow me to know what the Congress is supposed to do. ?? Of course asking the Congress to do anything is like asking Klaus Schwab for a $million gift.
Well, the gaming myth of the Fed for the past few years is playing out to resolution - a resolution that renders pain to the American people - whoever that is now with an ongoing massive invasion.
