The use of overnight reverse repurchase tools by the Federal Reserve hit a record high for the second day in a row.
In an effort to find a place for large amounts of money, demand for the Fed's reverse repo tool to control short-term interest rates rose to a record high for the second day in a row. On Thursday, about 46 institutions deposited about $497.4 billion with the Fed through overnight reverse repurchase agreements.

The Fed's overnight reverse repo tool does not provide returns at all, but the demand for reverse repos is growing because of the flood of liquidity in the dollar financing market. The causes of excess liquidity are in addition to the asset purchases by the Federal Reserve and the reduction of the account cash balance by the US Treasury to make the system accurate.

The price-earnings ratio of the S&P 500 index starts at 202
