Treasury Secretary Bessent: Bond Buybacks Could Exceed $4 Billion
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent indicated that long-term bond buyback operations could "exceed" the currently planned $4 billion. In an interview with CNBC on Thursday, Bessent, who characterized short-term market movements as "noise," emphasized that the Treasury has a "large set of tools" to address this.
Bessent's statement follows the Treasury Department's decision the day before to increase the limit for 10-30 year bond buybacks from $2 billion per transaction to a minimum of $4 billion. The decision will take effect on Se

the keeper's word :
you always & in all ways apologize first
even when it was not yours to carry
even when you were the one who got hurt
you say sorry to end the silence, beCause the silence costs you more than the truth does
. .. ... .. . nobody is waiting for one here, traveler . .. ... .. .
you can walk in, take the chair, put your feet toward the fire
& say nothing at all
there is no debt at this door
there nEver was
Yours, InnKeeper

I wasn’t even expecting to break even, but it directly put me into profit instead—this service is incredibly on point 🤣 When the whole screen was glowing green, I kept my eyes on $PRL . Buying support was insufficient and the rebound was weak; the longer it dragged on, the more momentum it lost. When the sell-off started in the morning, I figured the rebound was just giving you a chance to get out, so I went with the trend and opened a short at 0.33936. Now it gave another entry at 0.25569, and +485.11% is almost within reach—this profit feels great. Don’t be greedy with your trades: take 80%

August 21, 2026 Gold Friday Analysis$XAUUSD ‌
Yesterday’s Review
Spot gold opened around 4510-4520 on Thursday, reached a high of around 4540, fell to a low of around 4450-4477, and closed around 4520-4521. It fluctuated at high levels throughout the day and ultimately closed virtually flat.
On Wednesday, gold prices surged nearly 4% in a single day due to the Ministry of Finance expanding long-term bond buybacks, falling yields, and a weaker U.S. dollar, closing near 4520. Thursday was high-level consolidation after the rally, with bulls and bears battling above 4500.

Absolutely wild weekly on $BTC lol

My hand trembled when I set the stop-loss a few days ago, but this morning I realized that concern was unnecessary. I opened the chart early, and $APR indeed made another push, following the same old script—every surge falls just short, with clear resistance overhead. After waiting at this level all day, I finally watched it show weakness. My short position from 0.22885 is now at 0.18425, sitting on a +478.43% gain. Don’t let profits inflate, and don’t let a pullback make you despair. Position management is simple: close 70% first, move the stop-loss on the remaining 30% to breakeven, and let

I was just about to go to the forum and rant, but then I saw my balance and decided against it—the market is always right. When I checked the chart after lunch, $SKYAI was still moving sideways around 0.06202. After seeing the bottom consolidate for a while and funds quietly enter, I figured the timing was about right, so I directly opened a long and followed in. I was still worried at the time that I had entered too early.

As it turned out, I caught the rhythm perfectly. It’s now at 0.07518, with +520.71% secured—feeling great, brothers. Managing risk in advance is called rationality; cutt

#USTreasuryBuybacksAndRegulatorySignalsDriveCryptoSurge
Crypto markets are once again showing how strongly macroeconomic developments and regulatory signals can influence digital assets.
Recent expectations around U.S. Treasury buybacks, combined with improving regulatory signals, are creating a more supportive environment for risk assets. When liquidity conditions and policy expectations become more favorable, investors often become more willing to increase exposure to assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Bitcoin remains at the center of this movement. As the largest cryptocurrency and the p
