The article examines possible market effects of US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's appointments of David Zervos and Judy Shelton as advisers. It discusses the Treasury's unsuccessful effort to lower long-term yields through buybacks and short-term bill issuance, and considers the potential for unconventional policy proposals to affect bonds and commodities.
Changes in Treasury issuance or interest-rate policy could shift yields and the dollar, changing financing conditions and the relative appeal of dollar-priced commodities. The article describes possible future effects rather than a current supply or demand change.
