The US Treasury repurchased $12.5 billion of previously issued Treasuries through its buyback program in an open-market operation reported by Cointelegraph on Sept. 3. Earlier information had described the Sept. 3, 2026 transaction as a forecast, while the newer report characterized it as completed. Treasury buybacks are intended to support market liquidity and improve cash and debt management, although the operation also prompted questions about yield-curve management.
