TLT TBT The U.S. Treasury has ramped up sales of short-term bills this month as the government borrows more money and is weighing on debt sentiment. Reuters noted growing federal deficits and higher interest payments have pushed U.S. borrowing needs sharply higher, leading Treasury to increase issuance of short-term debt that has been absorbed quickly by money market funds. Wells Fargo's macro strategist said net Bill issuance in July so far of roughly $270B already exceeded his forecast for the entire month of $256B. Goldman Sachs said in a note that 2026's total Bill supply was expected to reach $827B versus roughly $360B in 2025.
