Why investors aren’t buying yet another attempt by the Treasury to calm the rattled bond market
Why now
Thesis: Treasury demand stays weak despite buyback efforts
Catalyst to watch: Upcoming auctions and foreign bid data
Main risk: Yields could spike further on weak demand
Why it matters
Weak Treasury auctions despite buybacks show insufficient demand, keeping upward pressure on yields.
Details
Back-to-back weak auctions for Treasury notes show that government repurchases haven’t spurred demand for bonds.
