These records cover different periods and transaction types. Remaining ATM capacity is permission to sell, not proceeds or issued shares. The amounts do not compare valuation, dilution, or shareholder returns; open each filing-backed record for its share-count context and dated caveats.

Treasury research path

Move from the instrument basics to current cross-border holdings data, then check auction demand and interest-rate sensitivity. Each guide explains what the source can and cannot show.

  1. Choose the instrument: T-bills, T-notes, and T-bonds
  2. Read the latest TIC data: foreign Treasury holdings and flows
  3. Check primary demand: bidders, bid-to-cover, and auction tails
  4. Estimate rate sensitivity: duration and convexity

The TIC article is updated from U.S. Treasury releases. Publication dates and source-verification dates are shown separately.
