Aren't VCs always looking for higher return rate in their portfolios ? Thus, whatever the Fed funds rate is, the return is insignificant for a VC fund and they will always seek riskier investment. May be what's happening is that there is more capital for VCs to raise, since investing in moderate risky assets is not that attractive. And thus more money is funneled to riskier funds in search of a return.
