Citadel Securities, a top Wall Street market maker, stated in a client report that the U.S. Treasury's expansion of 10-year to 30-year Treasury buybacks aims to lower long-term borrowing costs, but this move cannot eliminate the fundamental economic forces driving yields higher. The institution warned that this marginally constitutes "financial repression," which will only shift pressure from the bond market to the exchange rate market, thereby weakening the dollar and pushing up inflation. Early signals have already emerged in the market, including 30-year Treasury bonds giving back all their gains within one day after the buyback announcement, a weakening dollar, and a continuous rise in gold prices.
