The U.S. Treasury’s debt-buyback program is a desperate attempt to calm jittery markets, but yields on long-term bonds remain stubbornly high—30-year rates at 5.25%, 10-year near 4.7%—reflecting investors’ deep unease over ballooning national debt. With the government patching fiscal leaks while issuing more bonds, and tech giants adding to market pressure, the Fed’s role remains debated. Investors demand higher returns as borrowing costs climb, creating a vicious cycle that underscores the fragility of the current system—and shows that no quick fix can silence the alarm bells ringing for America’s fiscal health.
