Fed's Barkin Warns Surging US Debt Could Deter Investor Purchases

On August 26, according to Jinshi Data, Richmond Fed President Barkin recently made clear remarks on the US Treasury market. He noted that as the US government's debt scale continues to rise, the current supply-demand structure of the bond market is facing a test. Barkin emphasized that if debt continues to increase, investors will sooner or later stop buying US Treasuries at some point.

The statement directly reflects his concerns that the expansion of the US fiscal deficit may weaken external financing capacity. Market participants are assessing potential changes in future Treasury auction demand and interest rate trends accordingly.
