Definition

The Treasury’s quarterly statement of how much debt it will issue and across which maturities to fund the government, including guidance on future auction sizes.

Why investors care

The size and maturity mix of issuance directly affects bond supply, term premium and long-end yields — increasingly a top market mover.

What to watch

The bill-vs-coupon mix matters: heavy bill issuance drains less duration; bigger long-bond sizes pressure the long end.
