With Bessent's pending long term treasury bond intervention starting in just a few days, what are the possible impact of a trillion dollar injection into the market.
As i understand it, the US treasury has about $31T in outstanding debt with a market that has an average daily trading value of $1.21T. The lion's share of that $1.2T average daily trading is short term, under 2 year, with just $52Bb/$115B/$93B in 2/5/10 year. Could not find data on 20 and 30 year but presumably they are even smaller than 10 year... so...
What impact would $1T of intervention have on the 20/30 year treasury market?
What impact would that injection of cash have on inflation and/or higher stock prices?
