The Treasury Department could use its nearly $1 trillion general account to help finance an announced increase in purchases of long-term government bonds, according to two senior Treasury officials cited by CNBC. ➤ This news follows Secretary Scott Bessent’s surprise announcement that Treasury would double buybacks of off-the-run securities from $2 billion to at least $4 billion. The announcement failed to calm a skeptical bond market, with long-term yields rising sharply. ➤ The Treasury General Account, essentially the government’s cash balance at the Federal Reserve, currently holds roughly $950 billion, far above the approximately $550–600 billion target maintained under the Biden administration. ➤ Officials said drawing on that cash, rather than relying solely on short-term bill issuance as Bessent’s “Treasury Twist” comments suggested, could give the operation substantially more firepower without requiring Federal Reserve assistance.

Before Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent unveils what he calls an “economic D-Day” of the “toughest sanctions in history” against Iran at 2 p.m. ET Monday, Jeff Currie, Goldman Sachs’ former global head of commodities research, explains how Bessent has already intervened across oil, currency and bond markets. Currie notes Washington pushed oil lower to contain inflation and long-term yields, then supported the yen and proposed Gulf swap lines to discourage foreign Treasury sales. With 30-year yields continuing to rise, Treasury doubled long-bond buybacks. He says Bessent is forcing prices below market fundamentals, calling it “financial repression” and a path toward dollar debasement which helps explain rising gold, silver and Bitcoin prices.

🚨 🇺🇸 BESSENT JUST CALLED A MONDAY PRESS CONFERENCE AS THE U.S. BOND MARKET STARTS BREAKING AGAIN The Treasury Secretary will address the public at 2:00 pm ET. The timing is fucking insane. The 30-year U.S. Treasury yield just hit 5.34%. Highest level since 2007. Washington responded by doubling long-bond buybacks, from $2 billion to at least $4 billion per operation. Yields dropped immediately. But within one day most of that move was erased, and the 30-year was back near its peak. Bessent has already said the buybacks could be increased even further. U.S. debt is now above $40 trillion, and the cost of financing it keeps rising. The Treasury is trying to calm a bond sell-off that refuses to stay down. This announcement will move the entire market. Be ready.

Arthur Hayes: Why US Treasury Buybacks Are Pumping Bitcoin In an August 23, 2026 video interview with Altcoin Daily, BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes Arthur Hayes said Treasury Secretary Bessent announced at least doubling long-end bond buybacks, sending the 10-year yield to 4.75% with 5% possibly in sight. He argued that despite strong inflation, steady growth and the 2-year yield running 50–60 basis points above the effective fed funds rate — all pointing to hikes — the Fed won't actually raise rates, because the Treasury must keep issuing short-term bills to keep the market functioning. Buybacks mean more liquidity, with more money chasing scarce assets like Bitcoin. He added that once the market truly fears yield curve control, Bitcoin could quickly rise to hundreds of thousands of dollars.

🇺🇸 Bessent announced the Treasury buyback double-down, and yields erased the move within 24 hours. Macro investor George Gammon called it publicly and gave it a week. It took a day. His point is that long-term rates answer to growth and inflation expectations, and no announcement changes either one. The buybacks amount to selling short-term debt to buy long-term debt. On the sanctions, he's blunter still: "If sanctions would have worked, why didn't you do it before? It's just a total cop out, so they have a narrative to take into midterms." George Gammon

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 Treasury Secretary Bessent says he has "asymmetric information" the bond market doesn't have. "Do we know something the market doesn't? I think the market's probably gotten a little ahead of itself." Here's what he revealed: - Buybacks could go BEYOND $4 BILLION per operation - "There's nothing magic" about the $40 TRILLION debt number - Deficit has likely already peaked under this administration - A new fiscal consolidation plan drops this week - The Treasury joined Japan's yen intervention because "we know something the market doesn't"

🇺🇸 Washington is throwing $40 billion at a $40 trillion bond market. Financial journalist David Lin says the arithmetic doomed the intervention before it started, and traders worked that out immediately: "The Treasury won't have enough firepower to enact meaningful long term change to the direction of the yields." Yields have already climbed back, which is the market's way of pricing what the announcement is actually worth. David Lin

Rick Rule: Gold will do well over the long term, but expect short-term volatility. In the short term, as a consequence of the Iran war: - Countries have to sell gold to fund domestic needs - Higher interest rates make the USD more attractive vs gold In the long term: - The US can't afford high rates - Debt-to-GDP is too high - Deficits are surging Which will result in massive money printing and a severe loss of purchasing power for the USD in the coming years, reminiscent of the 70s, which will be bullish for gold and other hard assets. Short term pain, long term gain

🇺🇸 Economist Philip Pilkington says the Treasury intervened directly in the bond market as interest rates approached what he calls a potential crisis point. The problem? The Fed is supposed to control monetary conditions. The Treasury is now effectively stepping into that territory by issuing short-term debt and using the proceeds to buy longer-term bonds. Pilkington's argument is not that the move was illegal. It's that the optics are terrible. If the Treasury has to intervene because rates are spiraling, while simultaneously appearing to challenge the Fed's role, markets can start asking a much bigger question: Who is actually in control of U.S. financial policy? Philip Pilkington

Big Tech just forced the US government into bailing ITSELF out. This morning the US Treasury announced it will at least double the size of its own bond buybacks, because for two months almost nobody else wanted them. The 30-year Treasury bond hit its highest yield since 2007 last Thursday, then did it again yesterday. The long end has been in a buyers' strike since late June, meaning the pension funds and insurers who normally absorb 20 and 30 year government paper stopped showing up. This morning it auctioned $16 billion of 20-year debt at the second-worst yield since that bond was reintroduced in 2020. So the Treasury tore up a schedule it had published two weeks earlier. It doubled the maximum size of each long-bond buyback from $2 billion to at least $4 billion, and went from two operations a quarter to four. The 30-year yield fell 9 basis points within minutes. Stocks rallied. By early afternoon the 10-year had given almost all of it back. BUT the thing is, this operation changes almost nothing, because the underlying problem is untouched: The tidal wave of hyperscaler debt sitting on top of very large government deficits. Hyperscaler means Google, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, Oracle and Nvidia. The Wall Street Journal went through the footnotes of 9 tech companies' filings on Sunday and found roughly $3 TRILLION in AI commitments sitting outside their balance sheets. That is 5x the $600 billion of capital spending those same companies reported over the past year. Alphabet alone discloses $811 billion in purchase and contractual obligations. Three months earlier it was $332 billion. All of it has to be funded somewhere. And this is where it collides with the government: Data centers, chip supply agreements and 20-year power contracts are long-duration assets, and long-duration assets get financed with long-duration debt. That is the exact product the US Treasury sells. There is a finite pool of investors willing to lend money for 30 years at a fixed rate. That pool does not get bigger because Meta needs another campus in Louisiana. So when the largest companies in history issue hundreds of billions of long-dated debt at the same moment the Treasury needs to roll a national debt approaching $40 trillion, both sides are bidding for the SAME buyers. One of those bidders can offer whatever yield it takes and book it as growth. The other one is the US government, and this morning it folded. Treasury does not create money for these buybacks. It funds them by issuing shorter-dated debt instead, so the obligation does not disappear. It gets pulled closer to the present, to be refinanced at whatever rate exists in a year or two. The government is buying back the debt nobody wants by selling more of the debt people still take. The 30-year Treasury yield is the number that prices your mortgage. The average 30-year fixed sits at 6.67% today. But there IS a real argument on the other side: Buybacks are routine, and $4 billion is nothing against a $30 trillion market. Plenty of serious people will call today housekeeping. But housekeeping shouldn’t require tearing up your own published schedule two weeks after you release it. The AI buildout is now financed at a scale that competes with sovereign borrowing, and the sovereign is losing bidders. Nobody voted on that, and people will pay for it in their mortgage rate long before anyone calls it a crisis. What do you think?

In his interview with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, THIS FACT made Tucker Carlson pause and say, "That's the message right there. Just as a bystander I'm like, wow, okay." This is what Sec. Bessent described to Tucker: "The good news is we have President Trump's previous term ...working class Americans and hourly workers did better than supervisory workers. The bottom 50% of households, their net worth increased faster than the top 10% of households. And look, I'm not happy with what's going on in the market today, but the distribution of equities across households, the top 10% of Americans own 88% of equities, 88% of the stock market. The next 40% owns 12% of the stock market. The bottom 50 has debt. They have credit card bills. They rent their homes, they have auto loans and we've got to give them some relief."
