ORLANDO, Florida, Aug 19 (Reuters) - Long-dated U.S. bond yields and the dollar tumbled on Wednesday after the U.S. Treasury said it would double the amount of planned bond buybacks in the coming months. As a result of the fall in market-based rates and the dollar, U.S. stocks climbed while gold and bitcoin rose sharply.
In my column today, I ******* yze whether the massive increase in AI-driven debt issuance from the U.S. hyperscalers is responsible for the recent surge in U.S. bond yields and risk premium. Is the corporate bond market "crowding out" investor demand for Treasuries?
If you have more time to read, here are a few articles I recommend to help you make sense of what happened in markets today.
