Question

Impact of Treasury Financing on Bond Prices The Treasury periodically issues new bonds to finance the deficit. Review recent issues of the Wall Street Journal or check related online news to find a recent article on such financing. Does the article suggest that financial markets are expecting upward pressure on interest rates as a result of the Treasury financing

Answer 1

When the treasury bonds are restricted to purchase it creates pressure on other securities and interest rates tend to move upwards.

Step-by-step explanation:

When interest rates more upwards then cost of borrowing is increased. This increase in cost of borrowing creates pressure on the profits of private sector. The public sector benefits from this increase in interest rates. When government is in trouble and financing is limited then these measures are used to run the economy.
