Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is deploying a big toolkit to calm the government debt market—buying back bonds, boosting liquidity, and talking up confidence—but so far, his moves haven’t moved the needle.

Critics called the announcement rushed and ineffective, while Bessent insists yields don’t reflect the real economy. With corporate bonds competing for investor attention and global forces at play, he’s left with tough choices: bigger buybacks, smaller auctions, or reshuffling debt maturities—and maybe even surprising the market to rebuild trust.
