The US Treasury has doubled its bond purchases for 10 and 30-year bonds, amid a national debt exceeding $40 trillion. The 30-year yield fell by 10 basis points, while the dollar lost value against all major currencies.
The Treasury made this decision without consulting its advisors, which is seen as a signal that the market will demand higher premiums in the future. The Treasury is trying to use a liquidity tool as a fiscal policy, but each intervention teaches the market to demand more fees for the next move. Investors holding long-term US papers should consider this announcement as new information on how debt management will be handled in the future.
