to receive:$2.5 trillion

Is the H.4 report out yet? Bloomberg is reporting that “FED RELEASES DELAYED LOAN FIGURES TO BANKS, BOND DEALERS,” and gives some bits of data, but not the whole report. The H.4.1 page isn’t refreshing for me now, but other pages do… weird. If the report has been handed out privately, and isn’t going to be posted at the Fed website, could anyone reading this who has it forward a copy to me? Thanks.

The H.4.1 report is out, and it doesn’t look *that* bad. Sorry for sounding worried.
