Arthur Hayes: If the U.S. Treasury cancels bond auctions or triggers "covert money printing," it may exacerbate the expansion of the money supply

ChainCatcher news, BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes posted on social media, "If the U.S. Treasury decides to cancel the upcoming 10-year and 30-year Treasury auctions, it is a covert form of money printing, as it would instead consume the TGA (Treasury General Account). This is a simple intermediate step to calm the chaos before 'coward' Powell fulfills his duties."

In Hayes' tweet, he shared a summary of a Bloomberg article titled "Treasury 'Fire Sale' Leads to Surge in Global Long-Term Yields," noting that the yield on 30-year U.S. Treasuries recently surpassed 5%, marking the largest sell-off since 2020, with yields rising about 40 basis points over the past three trading days, and global bond yields also increasing.

At the same time, Hayes' tweet carried a sarcastic tone, criticizing Federal Reserve Chairman Powell for potentially adopting loose policies under pressure.
