That looks like a graph of quantitative easing.
To use a car analogy I'm arguing the gas pedal doesn't work as well so the Fed is having to keep their foot to the gas to maintain it's historical speed. Others argue the Fed is has been trying to go faster and that's why their foot is on the gas pedal. The graph seems to support that indeed their foot is on the gas.
