Treasury Begins Paying Off Debts
New York AP reports the U S Treasury will pay off maturing bonds rather than refinance, injecting cash into the economy. Bankers say it could ease short term rates, with effects seen later this year, but not yet on mortgages or autos. Overwithheld income tax provides $10 billion to $11 billion, enabling debt payoff without new borrowing. The path for next spring remains uncertain, dependent on the budget and election.
