US Treasury Doubles Bond Buybacks as Yields Hit 19-Year High
The U.S. Treasury Department took an emergency step on Wednesday to stabilize a rattled bond market, announcing that it would at least double the size of its liquidity support buyback operations for longer dated government securities from $2 billion to a minimum of $4 billion per operation. The change covers Treasury securities in the 10-to-20-year and 20-to-30-year maturity sectors and takes effect September 9, remaining in place through November 4, 2026.
