FOR A MEDAL
Pedro is thinking about buying U.S. savings bonds. However, there is a financial institution controlled by the government that may actively discourage Pedro from buying bonds. How and why would such a financial institution do this? Stocks on Wall Street may be doing quite well, encouraging Pedro to invest there instead of buying securities. The U.S. Treasury might refuse to sell securities to Pedro, because it does not have any bonds to sell. The Federal Reserve could raise the price of securities, to encourage Pedro to buy other things instead. Banks might raise their interest rates, encouraging Pedro to deposit his money there instead of buying securities.

Savings bonds are securities issued by the US Treasury Department. They provide funding dollars for the US Government. In return for using your money, the government pays you interest. This discussion covers series EE and I savings bonds. Savings bonds used to be a major offering at banks and credit unions - Nowadays - These institutions still redeem bonds BUT they don't sell them anymore! The U.S. Treasury might refuse to sell securities to Pedro, because it does not have any bonds to sell. <-- TA DA
