U.S. Treasury Could Buy Back Up to $10B in Government Debt
The U.S. Treasury is expected to announce on September 10 how much long-term Treasury debt it plans to buy back.
The market expects the operation to be above $4B, while Morgan Stanley sees a possible increase to as much as $10B.
The goal is to improve liquidity in the bond market and help reduce pressure on Treasury yields. The 30-year Treasury yield previously reached 5.337%, its highest level since 2007.
A larger buyback could have a stronger impact. If the operation reaches $10B, the net supply of Treasuries with maturities above 20 years could fall by around 55%.
For risk assets such as $BTC , this could be a positive factor. Lower bond yields and better market liquidity can make alternative assets more attractive.
