 The Fed is trying to normailze. But the US government is still spending like a drunk sailor.  

M3 includes debt deposits up to 2 years and institutional money market funds.  It captures more of the government money printing. 

It's chart shows money supply is still going up.

Printers gonna print.

 not hard to have a decline when the money supply grew in just one year 2019-2020 by the same amount as what the TOTAL money supply had reached by 1996
