US Treasury yields surged after a $6 billion bond buyback disappointed markets. The sell-off threatens to raise borrowing costs for American households and businesses.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s unusual effort to substantially enlarge the department’s debt-buyback program faltered Wednesday. Announcing the size of the first expanded operation was not enough to stop markets from falling.

The operation could ease dealers’ inventory burden, but the amount alone does not create net liquidity or amount to Federal Reserve quantitative easing.
