Secretary Bessent’s activist approach to markets gets mixed reviews on Wall Street.

The U.S. Treasury announced it will be buying back $6 billion in long-term debt, but it failed to wow investors who were expecting the number to come in as high as $10 billion.

The surprise on payrolls will “fan the flames of the global bond market sell-off that's been underway in recent months,” wrote Robin J. Brooks, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution on X. Inflation data for August, out next Friday, will be a bigger factor for interest rates. If inflation shows progress in cooling, the Fed could keep interest rates steady.

With the U.S. economy gaining 162,000 jobs in August and unemployment remaining on a steady course, Fed officials won't need to worry as much about labor conditions when weighing the possibility of raising interest rates later this month. If August's jobs growth had been weak again, it might have raised concerns that the economy wasn't strong enough for higher interest rates.

The manager of Norway's $2.4 trillion sovereign-wealth fund proposed cutting its holdings of government bonds and adding riskier debt to boost returns. The move would shrink its portfolio of U.S. Treasurys by about $80 billion, according to WSJ calculations. The proposed changes would see the fund's exposure to U.S. Treasurys fall to 21.9% of its bond portfolio from 34.1%.
