The Treasury has two options -- either to change the regulations or to issue more long-dated debt, and selling more is the only fix we're going to get in the short term.
Anthony O'brien
We've seen this movie before. What Treasury is saying is pretty much of a rerun of what it said back in May.
Frank Vargo
While we have said all along that the foundation for the U.S. expansion is dodgy, as long as it is what it is, we expect to see the dollar and Treasury yields -- and fed funds -- move up.
David Gilmore
We are starting to price in the possibility of increasing inflationary pressures when making decisions on our bond holdings. We now see a bigger chance the Fed will hike rates three more times and Treasury yields will continue to rise.
Masayuki Yoshihara
We're trying to keep baseball within the Olympics after the 2008 Games, and this decision by the Treasury Department of the United States does not help us at all.
Aldo Notari
It was an extremely ugly auction. And that's something nobody wants to see, not the Street and certainly not Treasury, given the amount of borrowing they have to do.
Sadakichi Robbins
The Treasury market likes the headline because it was weaker than what it thought.
Joe Lavorgna
The group has never had a formal structure with a treasury and officers and elections. We've seen several of our Christian brothers go to be with the Lord and some members who were near death for several months returned to health.
Clark Johnson
This decision validates [the National Treasury Employees Union's] arguments that this administration, DHS and [the Office of Personnel Management] far overstepped the boundaries and abused the discretion given to them by Congress.
Colleen Kelley
We're seeing money flowing into the Treasury market. It's just a general flight to quality.
Bill Kirby
It will help investors seeking to better match assets and liabilities and will benefit the Treasury by modestly reducing our short-term funding volatility, broadening our customer base, lowering operational risk and reducing supply uncertainty.
Brookly Mclaughlin
What you had at that time was a president really interested in tax reform and a very skillful Treasury secretary (James Baker) interested in advancing the ideal.
Joseph Thorndike
It's our job here at Treasury to be a sober voice of reason. Our job here is to promote free trade and capital flows and open markets.
Timothy Adams
The market is changing positions today, and a rise in US Treasury prices is one of the factors that pushed up the market.
Osamu Tamada
Treasury yields above 4.5 percent look attractive. Some people may take it as a short-term opportunity to get in.
Toshihiko Sakai
Although he's only been in the House [of Commons] four years the fact that he was around at the Home Office and the Treasury gave him as good insight into things as a PPS or a junior minister would have had.
Lord Lamont
I had talks with my American colleague, (Treasury Secretary) John Snow, which created the basis on which the forgiveness of Iraqi debt can be settled mutually in the Paris Club.
Hans Eichel
The industry deals with confidential data including financial data, treasury and cash management functions and investment portfolio decisions and needs to address the issue of data security raised by international clients.
Manoj Sharma
Investors are also getting a bit tired of these tight spreads and they are not sure if they should invest at those spreads, particularly with the Treasury yields heading up.
Dilip Parameswaran
To Mexico's credit, they don't allow the oil windfall to get in the hands of the Treasury too much so they haven't really grown dependent on it.
Christian Stracke
People are a bit concerned with higher Treasury yields and the possibility that U.S. interest rates will continue to rise.
Flavio Datz
From what I understand, Treasury is politically tone-deaf on this. They didn't think they even had to talk to anybody about this.
Rep. Pete King
If you want to invest in a long-term Treasury security and you think inflation won't ever dip below 2 percent, this makes more sense than a nominal Treasury bond.
Casey Colton
I think we'll see a natural transition from cash and quality investments like Treasury bonds to riskier parts of the market, such as stocks, ... Investors will start to recognize stocks are cheap compared to Treasury bonds and that high-yield bonds are even cheaper.
Barry Evans
The Treasury market is already nervous and we have data coming out that can make the market even more stressed. Some of the stress in the U.S. has been passing through the market here.
Alexandre Vasarhelyi
Ten-year yields may have already peaked and this would be a good time to get back into the market. We see Treasury yields falling from here.
Hiroki Shimazu
But in 2006, when we talk about cash management, we talk about centralization and back-up support services at a regional level, such as the establishment of regional treasury services (and) shared service centers.
Russell Graham
The Fed is still concerned about rising inflation and it is not an encouraging sign for Treasuries. We are still cautious about investing in the U.S. Treasury market.
Yoshitaka Majima
It's much better than expected on the margins front and treasury staged a rebound despite a flat yield curve. I think loans will pick up in the second half.
Ismael Pili
We call on you to transfer all aid to the Palestinian treasury.
Ismail Haniyeh
We are expecting the Treasury market to continue to weaken in the next few months. There are no signs the economy is slowing and that means the Fed can continue hiking rates. This is not the time to be buying bonds.
Yasutoshi Nagai
Right now, we have negative real rates of return on Treasury bills and massive deficit spending. Historically, a currency can't be strong with those two factors.
Frank Holmes
Ron Carey did not put hundreds of thousands of dollars of his own money back in the Teamsters' treasury to allow a couple of schemers to steal that money.
Mark Hulkower
We call on you to transfer all aid to the Palestinian treasury. We assure you that all the revenues will be spent on salaries, daily life and infrastructure.
Ismail Haniyeh
The market is weak today because of continued adjustment of the 10-year U.S. treasury and the strength of the euro.
Alberto Bernal
The irony of ironies is, in order to make this coin totally legal and totally monetized, the buyer will have to give, in addition to millions of dollars it costs to buy it, $20 -- a $20 bill -- to go back to the Treasury.
David Redden
These are attractive levels to get back into the market, and we are anticipating a good performance ahead of us. We plan to gradually accumulate Treasury positions.
Akira Takei
Long-term rates are below the federal fund rate. That tells you the Fed's too tight. The reason the 30-year Treasury is so low is because people are expecting an economic slowdown, and that's not going to be good for earnings.
Michael Ancell
A rise in the 10-year Treasury note is leading investors to flee from Brazil, which is more risky.
Alexandre Vasarhelyi
The bottom line is it's difficult for a Treasury market to rally when the Fed has indicated they are not done tightening.
Michael Boss
Alexander Hamilton started the U.S. Treasury with nothing -- and that was the closest our country has ever been to being even.
Will Rogers
We call on you to continue moral and financial support, and to direct all aid to the Palestinian treasury so it can be used in keeping with the priorities of the Palestinian people.
Ismail Haniyah
The purpose of instituting the Office of International Treasury Control was to provide an administrative system in perpetuity, which will be able to exercise the management of these funds and their control.
Keith Scott
When the U.S. Treasury steps forward and the IMF steps forward to replace the flight of capital, there will be no need for the Brazilians to raise interest rates.
Joe Battipaglia
It's headed in the right direction. But we need get past all this Treasury refunding.
Robert Pavlik
Whichever party is in office, the Treasury is in power.
Harold Wilson
One popular explanation is that there is a glut of capital in the world in search of a home, and a lot of it finds its way into relatively risk-free assets, such as Treasury bonds.
Dorsey Farr
The world's central banks have certainly decided U.S. Treasury notes are a better long term investment than gold.
Wayne Angell
There's no question Thursday and Friday's numbers could be a catalyst for a substantial move in the Treasury market.
Joe Lavorgna
Obviously, we are thrilled with the treasury secretary's leadership and the Bush Administration's commitment to this. But it's also important to keep it bipartisan.
Lezlee Westine
JGB prices dropped on firmer stock prices, a drop in US Treasury prices overnight and a pullback in the yen against the dollar.
Akitsugu Bando
We're down for three reasons. One, we still have the overhang of supply associated with the February refunding auctions, which were not distributed that well. Two, the early gains in the Dow Jones industrial average have eliminated some support for Treasury.
William Sullivan
A week ago, we went out and shorted Treasury bonds. We do expect to see rates moving up as people realize the economy is strengthening.
Andy Engel
It will not reduce America's dependence on oil and it will not create a cleaner energy future, ... Instead the bill allows big oil companies to pollute water supplies, plunder the Treasury and attack our coastlines.
Anna Aurilio
He got the documents from lawyers at the Treasury Department when he made a request after he left.
Ron Suskind
If you look at the list what you see is civil servants taking the fall. Politicians, as in all other corruption scandals, are left untouched. These people had a role to play but they surely can't have been the only ones involved. There were people involved in facilitating the money coming out of the treasury, and people involved in the political cover-up.
Mwalimu Mati
No one likes to see their cost of business increase, but the federal treasury needs the money and we need the certainty.
Luke Popovich
Today, existing home sales are strong and that appears to be weighing on the market a bit because Treasury yields are higher.
Chris Burba
Investors don't feel safer buying bonds as they remain strongly concerned about a rate hike and higher yields. Surging Treasury yields will pressure Japanese yields to rise.
Akitsugu Bandou
Sure, the plan could push Treasury yields up. But if it contributes to an increased efficiency of the economy and boosts growth, what's not to like?
Bill Sterling
Last Friday's unexpectedly weak employment report caused interest rates on long-term Treasury bonds and, by extension mortgage rates, to fall as investors worried about the health of the U.S. economy.
Amy Crews Cutts
That was between Rick Hamlin, who represents La-Van, and the Treasury Department.
Frank Taylor
The spread curve is compressed enough -- you're talking about five basis points difference in the overall spread between two-year and seven-, eight or nine-year agencies, and a very flat Treasury curve, there's no reason to extend out for rates or spreads.
Jamie Jackson
We are grateful for the cooperation of the Departments of State and Treasury. The license we have been given opens the way for the Cuban Baseball Federation's participation, along with other federations from around the world, in the inaugural Baseball Classic, and we now look forward with even greater anticipation to the opening of the tournament in early March.
Don Fehr
We should be looking at this from a surgical point of view. A lot of people who think they would like to repeal the estate tax should put it in the context of fiscal policy. We'll have a huge hole in the federal treasury.
Benjamin Cardin
A small group driven by Liberal interests and personal greed almost effortlessly breached walls built to separate politicians from the treasury.
John Gomery
The dollar is going to be driven by policy, what (Treasury Secretary John) Snow says, and what happens in the G20 meeting, more than U.S. economic data.
Larry Brickman
I tried to make it pretty clear even before (leaving the Treasury Department) that it was not the kind of job I would be interested in. Its portfolio is a lot narrower than where my areas of interest lie.
Wayne Abernathy
[Nichols said the authors wrote the report after they left the Treasury Department last August.] This paper was not prepared at Treasury, by Treasury, or at the request of anyone at Treasury, ... It was prepared after the individuals in question went back to the private sector.
Rob Nichols
Never seen a Treasury secretary that has worked so well.
Preston Martin
[The market also benefited from oversold conditions, given that Treasury yields were near three-month highs earlier this week.] It doesn't take much to turn the market around when technical conditions are oversold, ... That in itself is going to attract buyers.
Josh Stiles
Coins are not money until it's monetized -- until the Treasury says they're money. They weren't legal to spend. It was simply a bright gold round disc. They were by order of the Treasury in 1937, melted down.
David Redden
We must be wary of accepting any proposal merely because the case has dragged on for so long or because of the current economic condition of the state treasury and revenue projections.
Ivory Phillips
There was this pool of money sitting in the retirement funds, that was not part of the (state treasury). A couple of legislatures burned up that surplus. We came back to ground zero — and then we got into the loss years.
Terry Moore
It was not conclusive to me. I really have a lot of faith in the city treasury.
Barbara Marshall
Treasury has a bunch of supply in front of it, so people are very nervous.
William Chepolis
That, in a nutshell, explains why the Democratic speaker of the assembly, Fabian Nunez, quietly amended a bill this week to grant movie producers tens of millions of dollars in subsidies from a state treasury that already is drowning in red ink, with multibillion-dollar annual deficits.
Dan Walters
They have one of the largest foreign reserves holdings in the world and rather than put it in (US) treasury bills, one way to diversify it is through their portfolio managers.
David Cohen
Today the flows have changed. We did see some selling this morning of the back end of the Treasury market and perhaps that's just a little disappointment that the stock market didn't go further below 10,000.
John Spinello
The testimonies to the Treasury Select Committee reinforce the impression that interest rates are set to remain on hold for several months to come.
Howard Archer
For the last two days [Treasury prices] have slowly been grinding higher and that was basically erased this morning in about 15 minutes after the durable goods data.
Gerald Lucas
This [was] an expected recovery from yesterday's selloff, ... The only thing keeping people invested in stocks is that the [Treasury] bond yields are quite low. So there's no other alternative.
John Pickett
The U.S. Treasury market will outperform their European counterparts. The yield spread is making Treasuries more attractive.
Akira Takei
The debt equity swap carried by the Chinese is beginning to be rather costly, it is this organic realization rather than pushy comments from (U.S. Treasury Secretary) John Snow that is likely to trigger a change.
Richard Cooper
Once they sell off what they are calling isolated bits and pieces, they will just dig deeper to sell off more. This administration is draining the Treasury, putting us into hock, so it can say with a straight face that we have no money and there is no other solution but to privatize.
Scott Silver
I look upon that job as a holding operation, ... I don't think Taylor would be happy to spend four years as the No. 3 person in the Treasury Department.
Andrew Brimmer
Investors are always nervous when news come out that Asian central banks plan to cut their Treasury holdings.
Toshihiko Sakai
Through our Executive Forum, we're able to create an environment where our customers can gather and openly discuss with their peers ideas that will help shape the scope of treasury functions in the future. For us, working closely with those who are redefining the relationship between banks and corporate clients strengthens our ability to meet their needs and those of their customers.
Joe Mullen
The labor market is crying for help. The government could write a check from Treasury to every man, woman and child right now for $400. All this bickering about the shape of a dividend tax cut is a distraction from how to get consumers spending right now.
Lawrence Mishel
The two-year Treasury is pretty attractive right now.
Suhail Dada
It doesn't take much to wipe out the treasury.
Jeffrey Steele
For the first time since August 2001, the Treasury will attempt to ease the pain for pension funds and insurance companies who need long assets to pay for a growing number of baby boomers.
Kevin Giddis
We manage the two (land-based) casinos, the Gold Coast and the Treasury.
Geoff Davis
There were questions developing in the market late last week regarding the tenor of Greenspan's speech ... (and) it seems as if the potential that there won't be a rate cut is weighing negatively on the Treasury market.
William Sullivan
We still expect Treasury yields to move higher. The rise in oil is starting to be a concern once again.
Grant Hassell
There was a lot of money invested in the Treasury market that the curve would get more inverted. The market moved against that, and now there's a lot of pain.
Ted Wieseman
There's no doubt that the effect of the tax cuts . . . have been an enormous factor in producing the additional income that has found its way now into the federal treasury.
Joshua B. Bolten
From the economic viewpoint, Treasury yields are too low. We are expecting robust growth in the first quarter and that will lead to a correction in the bond market.
Yasutoshi Nagai
JGB prices got off a firmer start today aided by the bullish tone on the US Treasury market overnight, but then they fell back after the sharp gains in stock prices here.
Akitsugu Bando
The Treasury can't have it both ways. They can't expect us to pay higher tax, fuel and utility bills while keeping the economy afloat by shopping in the high street.
Peter Spencer
It's amazing to say, and this is not an exaggeration, that Bob Rubin has more influence today on Capitol Hill than the current Treasury Secretary.
Charles Valliere
There is no sign of the economy slowing and that's bad for the Treasury market. We're not expecting any surprises from the Fed next week, which means we'll see another rate hike. Yields have not peaked.
Hiroki Shimazu
They had to scrap the 2021 (bond sale) completely, likely due to the market being jittery on higher Treasury yields.
Gautam Jain
What is really going on is the Treasury is in a funk about PFI schemes worth £7bn to £9bn that are being proposed by the NHS.
Andrew Lansley
If we see anything above 4.75 percent, approaching 5 percent on the 10-year Treasury, investors should be all over it.
Joseph Keating
While an environment in which the rand remains strong is always appropriate for something more creative, the National Treasury is unlikely to deviate from its consistent path of removing exchange controls gradually.
Colen Garrow
They tend to hold investment grade paper, no junk, and they more often than not tend to have a fairly heavy exposure in the Treasury market which has no risk of default.
Andrew Clark
In the short-term the currency is going to take its lead from the U.S. 10-year Treasury notes. All the focus is on the U.S.
Alexandre Vasarhelyi
Overall, I think treasury is on the right track. Every group coming into treasury has a fair chance [for budget appeals].
Aaron Robinson
The risk-reward ratio for longer maturity fixed income is just not attractive with the current yield curve. Cash yields are now up to more than 4% and longer-term treasury bonds yields remain below 5%.
Randy Lert
The Treasury Department will continue to take action as necessary to protect against threats to our financial system and our institutions.
Daniel Glaser
We're also still getting support from the low interest rates. While Treasury yields are not as low today as they've been, they are still historically at a substantial low, and that lends support to equities.
Michelle Clayman
I find it appalling from an ethical and moral vantage point that you can actually profit from stealing from the treasury. There should be an incentive to return the money.
Eric Epstein
The Byrd Amendment virtually defines corporate welfare. This is a massive payola scheme that takes money out of the US Treasury and uses it to line the pockets of private companies that have done nothing to earn it except sign on to antidumping petitions that drive up prices for American consumers.
Erik Autor
The Byrd Amendment virtually defines corporate welfare, ... This is a massive payola scheme that takes money out of the US Treasury and uses it to line the pockets of private companies that have done nothing to earn it except sign on to antidumping petitions that drive up prices for American consumers.
Erik Autor
The Latin American market is going to pay a lot of attention to moves in U.S. Treasury rates, while the US equity market remains a major momentum generator.
Enrique Alvarez
The Department of Justice is firmly committed to shutting down fraudulent trust schemes that cost the treasury and law-abiding taxpayers millions of dollars each year.
