According to CNBC, two senior officials from the U.S. Treasury revealed that the Treasury may utilize a fiscal general account (TGA) close to $1 trillion to fund its recently announced expansion of the government bond purchase program. Using the TGA account will give the Treasury greater ability to influence long-term bond yields.Last week, the U.S. Treasury unexpectedly announced that it would increase the repurchase scale of long-term "off-the-run securities" from $2 billion to at least $4 billion. U.S. Treasury Secretary Yellen stated that the scale of such operations could even exceed this new minimum level. However, the Treasury did not specify how it would fund these purchases at that time.Most market participants previously believed that the Treasury would raise funds by increasing the issuance of short-term Treasury bills. If the TGA account is utilized, the market's perception of this plan may change.The TGA is essentially a "checking account" that the U.S. government has with the Federal Reserve, similar to an emergency fund pool for the government. The funds in this account come from existing tax revenues.

On August 24, a portfolio manager at Fidelity International stated that the gold holdings of the fund he manages have doubled in the past three weeks, attributing this move to increased uncertainty surrounding Federal Reserve policy. After raising the gold allocation in the fund to his self-imposed limit of 5%, George Efstathopoulos mentioned that he would consider increasing this limit if the dollar's status as a safe-haven asset continues to decline. Following the Federal Reserve's July meeting, investors have been selling long-term government bonds, and it is against this backdrop that George began to increase his gold holdings."My understanding is that this is due to the Federal Reserve's lack of credibility and the intensification of policy uncertainty," George stated. He also noted that the U.S. Treasury unexpectedly increased its repurchase of long-term bonds, which seems more like "manipulating yields rather than addressing the fundamental reasons for why yields are rising." "Today, the focus on gold is no longer on the rise in yields themselves, but rather on why yields are rising."
