Billionaire investor Stanley Druckenmiller criticized the U.S. Treasury’s bond buyback plan, arguing that official intervention works against the market rather than with it. In his view, the program removes an important restraint on government borrowing and weakens fiscal accountability at a time when market pricing should be allowed to do its job. Druckenmiller also said markets remain the better judge of prices, suggesting that efforts to defend prices against underlying fundamentals tend not to hold over time. The comments were reported by CoinDesk on Aug. 25. The source summary did not provide additional details on the scale or timing of the buyback plan beyond Druckenmiller’s criticism of the intervention itself.
