The US gov't has been issuing lots of #debt over many years (acting like the corporate bond market in a way, financing activity w/ debt while expecting a "payout" of high US economic growth; the current admin especially so).
Now US bonds are less attractive to investors, causing a big selloff (which US Treasury Secretary Bessent recently failed to tamper much, see the 2nd link below).

Why Stocks and Bonds Are Responding Differently to the Iran War

This has got to have a bunch of the elites in banking, politics, and the rest of the corrupt moneyed establishment shaking in their boots, as they say.
In short: the USA has enjoyed a privileged position since the end of WWII, because the #US #dollar has been the de-facto standard international #currency. Not just for trade, but as a reserve as well. Other countries buy US-issued government #bonds by the absolute truckload, and it lets the US spend far above its income without triggering the #hyperinflation you see when another country does that by printing money (see: Zimbabwe).
The foundation of that international currency choice is the oil trade. Pretty much every oil transaction between parties in different countries uses US dollars, hence the "petrodollar' name.
#Chinese yuan becoming an alternate global reserve and trading currency has been a worry for the US for some years now. Oil transactions happening in #yuan could make it happen in a big way.
And then the dominoes might start falling. I'd say "popcorn time", but the collateral damage to the US #economy collapsing will have huge consequences for us all.
