El Tesoro de EEUU duplicará sus recompras ante la escalada de la deuda
El Departamento del Tesoro de Estados Unidos anunció este miércoles que duplicará el volumen de sus operaciones de recompra de bonos, hasta al menos 4.000 millones de dólares por operación, con el fin de "apoyar la liquidez" de los valores a largo plazo (de 10 a 20 años y de 20 a 30 años). Leer
The United States Department of the Treasury has announced a doubling of its purchases of U.S. long-term public debt to provide additional liquidity to the market, following a sharp increase in borrowing costs. This decision comes as investors worry about the impact of rising inflation, driven by the conflict between the United States and Iran, and the growing burden of U.S. government debt.
The Treasury stated that it plans to increase the size of its long-term debt purchases, aimed at providing liquidity for bonds with maturities between 10 and 20 years, as well as those maturing between 20 and 30 years, from $2 billion to at least $4 billion. This move led to a significant rise in the long-term debt yield and caused the yield on 30-year bonds to fall by 0.09 percentage points, reaching 5.2%.
The decision to increase purchases is seen as a clear signal from the Treasury to the market that it is concerned about the selling pressure at the longer end of the yield curve.
