TREE NEWS reports: The US Treasury announced it will double its buyback cap for long-term Treasuries to $40 billion per operation, aiming to ease high long-term yields. While US stocks only saw modest gains, Bitcoin surged from $64K to near $70K, interpreted as a leading indicator of improving dollar liquidity. The move is seen as the Treasury acting on behalf of the Fed, boosting market confidence despite muted equity response.
Treasury Doubles Bond Buyback, Bitcoin Surges: A Signal of Liquidity Shift?
The Treasury expanding its long-term buyback capacity matters less as a debt-management tool than as a liquidity signal, and Bitcoin's outsized reaction relative to equities suggests crypto is again trading as the most rate-sensitive macro asset in the book. The muted stock response implies equity investors are not yet convinced this eases conditions meaningfully. Whether Bitcoin holds its move once the initial liquidity narrative fades — and whether long-end yields actually respond — is the open question.
