I finally logged in to my TreasuryDirect account in order to schedule a purchase, and discovered that I had a notification waiting for me there.

It said, “Treasury is now offering marketable securities at a lower minimum. Treasury Bills, Notes, Bonds and TIPS can now be purchased in TreasuryDirect for a minimum of $100 and in multiples of $100.”

That’s pretty cool, since previously you had to purchase things like that in multiples of $1,000 instead of $100. I wonder what the reason for the drop is though?
