The U.S. Treasury is conducting a $4 billion debt buyback today, targeting 7- to 10-year maturity securities. The operation is scheduled from 1:40 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. ET, with settlement tomorrow. Treasury has expanded its buyback program to support liquidity in less-traded bonds. Some crypto market participants expect the move to lower yields and support Bitcoin, but the operation is not quantitative easing and does not directly create new liquidity. Treasury says the larger buybacks are intended to provide liquidity support in longer-dated securities.
