U.S. Treasuries Yield $2 Million Per Minute as Rates Soar U.S. Treasuries are generating substantial income for investors, marking a significant turnaround from nearly two decades of low returns due to zero-rate policies. As benchmark rates climbed from nearly 0% to over 5% within just two years, investors now see a reliable source of income in these government bonds. Last year, investors earned nearly $900 billion from U.S. government debt, a figure that’s double the average of the previous decade. Moreover, over 90% of Treasuries now offer coupons of at least 4%, providing a strong buffer against potential rate hikes. This resurgence highlights Treasuries’ renewed role as a dependable economic staple, capable of delivering consistent annual returns. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Are the Gold Bulls Overexuberant?
