Any High Yield or Bank/Leverage Loan Traders here?

I had a few questions about current market and liquidity and wondering whether there are any sell-side traders here who wouldn't mind answering a few macro-type questions. Please PM. Thanks.

Liquidity it poor and will be a shitshow at the next crisis. Regulators took the market making risk out of the banks' hand and put it on the investors.
