Summary · why it matters

US Treasury Secretary Bessent's announcement of a US Treasury buyback temporarily lowered interest rates and strengthened the yen, but market reaction was limited, and disappointment over the lack of specifics in the fiscal consolidation plan could trigger a triple decline in Japan: falling US bonds, stocks, and the dollar. The buyback is scheduled from September 9 to November 4, with the per-operation cap raised to between $2 billion and $4 billion (approximately 634 billion yen), but long-term yields have returned to pre-announcement levels. Bessent has said he will soon unveil a fiscal consolidation plan, but without concrete measures, it risks disappointing markets and leading to a triple decline. This week, events include a press conference by Bank of Japan Deputy Governor Ryozo Himino, a speech by Federal Reserve Chair Warsh at the Jackson Hole symposium, and the G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors meeting, which could destabilize markets from September to October.
