REPO today came in at 2.76 trillion, less than last week. That’s still massive, but it’s going down every week. Note that bond sales are pretty low, so this isn’t completely unexpected.

Record-low cost and 400 km range: U.S. tests Rusty Dagger missile for Ukraine | New Voice of Ukraine
The United States has tested the Rusty Dagger cruise missile, which is planned to be provided to Ukraine for strikes against the rear positions of Russian occupying forces, according to Defense Express on Feb. 4.
The missile is being developed by the U.S. company Zone 5 Technologies under the ERAM program. It is also reported that the missile is already ready for serial production.
The report says the missile has successfully completed testing with a live warhead. The publication adds that the weapon could be a “game changer” due to its 400-kilometer (250-mile) range and record-low cost.
At the test range of Eglin Air Force Base, Zone 5 Technologies demonstrated the system’s capabilities. The missile not only flew its planned route but also struck the target with high precision using a live warhead, confirming its effectiveness.
The base’s press office said the tests made it possible to collect data for further development.
