Market read
If the 20-year bond were eliminated, existing holders would face a shrinking market for that specific maturity, which could affect how easily they can trade it. A move toward more short-term debt would reduce the government's reliance on longer-dated bonds, potentially easing pressure on long-term yields. Next up: MBA 30-Year Mortgage Rate.

The US 20-year Treasury auction closed at a yield of 5.204%, just inside the October 2023 record of 5.245%, after Treasury buybacks sent 20Y yields down ~8 bps, preventing what would have been a record high yield.
