US Treasuries2026-08-20 06:17:41$123 Million Floods Into Long-Duration Treasury ETF a Day Before Treasury Buyback ExpansionA large and unusually timed bet hit the U.S. Treasury market just before the Treasury Department announced an expansion of its buyback program. According to BlockBeats, the Pimco 25+ Year Zero Coupon U.S. Treasury Index ETF, traded under the ticker ZROZ, recorded $123 million in net inflows on Tuesday, the biggest single-day inflow in the fund’s history. The ETF, which has about $1.5 billion in assets, also saw trading volume rise to 5.2 million shares, nearly double its previous 2024 peak. ZROZ holds STRIPS, or Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities, which are zero-coupon instruments created by splitting Treasury principal and interest payments. Because the fund carries an effective duration of about 28 years, it is highly sensitive to moves in long-end yields. In theory, a 1 percentage point decline in yields would translate into an about 28% gain in bond prices. The fund rose 3.2% on Wednesday, marking its biggest one-day advance since November 2024.1180
