The U.S. Treasury is facing significant financial activity with projections indicating that if rates remain stable, the U.S. will pay $1.7 trillion in interest payments over the next year. This week, the Treasury will auction $125 billion in notes and bonds, including $58 billion in 3-year notes, $42 billion in 10-year notes, and $25 billion in 30-year bonds. This series of auctions is considered a critical test of demand for U.S. government debt. Additionally, the Treasury's current rate of interest payout is approximately $2 million per minute, reflecting a high cost of debt servicing. Last year, investors earned nearly $900 billion in interest from U.S. government debt, a figure that has doubled compared to the average of the previous decade.
