FORGET THE FED AND JACKSON HOLE: TREASURY IS ABOUT TO UNLEASH $500 BILLION QUANTITATIVE TIGHTENING

"The Treasury has indicated that once the debt ceiling is increased, it plans to run the cash balance at USD750 billion.... This acts like quantitative tightening."

Below we republish the Man note, which while covering a topic we have discussed extensively, is something to keep an eye on as we believe many more traders will soon realize that Jackson Hole - and the taper in general - is just a distraction from the far greater QT coming up at the hands of the US Treasury which is about to unleash a massive Quantitative Tightening in the coming months, draining a whopping $500 billion in liquidity by year-end - assuming there is no further drain in Treasury cash which however is unlikely - and potentially as much as $800 billion should the Treasury cash drop to approximately $0 by November as the debt ceiling negotiations extend until the last possible moment, at which point the Treasury scrambles to refill its cash balance with a flood of Bill issuance

Biden Finally Does 6-Minute Afghan Presser, Reiterates "Support Of Allies", Takes No Questions

by Tyler Durden

Just four and a half hours late...six minute statement, and no questions

Just four and a half hours after the press conference was initially scheduled for, President Biden stumbled out to a podium, read a teleprompter(barely), and then rushed for the door, taking no questions. He began by discussing the House vote then shifted to Afghanistan.

He spoke on Afghanistan for 6 minutes.

What was of note is the number of times he reiterated "full support, or "full cooperation" or "shoulder to shoulder" with US allies - which is questionable given his decision to stick with the Aug 31 deadline while his G-7 allies are pushing to extend it.

….

Update (1600ET): US officials are reportedly telling US-based humanitarian groups to "get ready for 50,000 Afghans", according to Bloomberg, but we can imagine the real number will be higher.

· U.S. TO START REDUCING NUMBER OF TROOPS IN AFGHANISTAN: WAPO

Meanwhile the White House is centering Biden's rationale to keep the Aug.31 deadline for full troop pullout at Kabul airport, despite the possibility that Americans might be left behind, on the lingering threat of terrorism

La pregunta de orden es: para que quiere el US mas afganos en el país. El humanismo en tiempos de guerra no existe. Quizá busca entrenarlos militarmente para devolverlos y bajar al Gob Taliban. Ese entrenamiento toma tiempo y ya la Econ afgana empieza a levantarse. Además el Gbno Taliban tiene fuerte apoyo internacional. SO, crear mercenarios a sueldo y enviarlos a Afganistán está condenado a la derrota.

China to UN: Hold US accountable for human rights violations! (Full show)

Vice President Harris has accused Beijing of intimidation and coercion in the South China Sea, reiterating Washington’s commitment to an open and free Indo-Pacific. She is touring Singapore and Vietnam in the hope of countering Chinese security and economic influence. Former USTR official Steve Gill shares his insights. He also weighs in on the situation in Afghanistan as the US continues to withdraw its forces and the evolving COVID-19 situation, which he believes has been deliberately weaponized by Beijing.
