Hello timber. Lets keep this simple. If I had some 30 year Treasuries which does not mature for say another 20 years then I have a relatively illiquid asset. If I sold that to say a bank which ultimately sold to the Fed in return for Freshly created money, I would have a liquid asset which I can spend in the economy today instead of 20 years time. Although I agree it may be difficult to predicit when significant inflation will kick in there is no doubt soaking up illiquid assets such as bonds in return for freshly printed money will ultimately be inflationary.
The key is how long will it take before this money enters the real economy ? This is when the real signs of inflation will show.
