🟢 Real Estate ETF (SPRE) is trading 3.87% up in pre-market after Treasury announced plans for $4 billion debt buybacks

SPRE is trading at $22.22, up 3.87% from August 19’s $21.39 close after Treasury’s buyback announcement eased long-term yields.

• Treasury will at least double long-term debt buybacks to $4 billion per operation; the 30-year yield initially fell nearly 10 basis points, improving rate-sensitive sentiment.
• The move appears partly catch-up buying; August 20 yields rebounded to 5.217% (30-year) and 4.67% (10-year), limiting follow-through.
• Realtor.com’s August 19 report cited weakening entry-level demand, making rates and positioning more important than housing fundamentals today.
