U.S. Treasury Plans a Record $112 Billion Quarterly Debt Sale

“The U.S. Treasury expanded its plans for the issuance of longer-term debt in coming months, after depending mainly on shorter-dated bills to fund the federal government’s record spending surge to address the Covid-19 crisis. The department on Wednesday said it will issue a record $112 billion of securities at next week’s so-called quarterly refunding of maturing Treasuries.

Of the 44 economists surveyed by Bloomberg, 22 expect a 25 basis-point rate cut on Thursday, one projects a 50-point move and the rest see no change. Das has already led the Monetary Policy Committee in cutting interest rates by 115 basis points this year, taking the repurchase rate down to 4%, the lowest since it was introduced in 2000.​”
