  1. #OMG... Please Stop Worrying About The "Great Trump Recession"... #SMH...Everything Is Fine...

  2. So if the market is still betting against the Yen while carry-trader seek a safe haven in Switzerland, who has really an interest to weaken the Dollar even more?

    Or are these the first signs of an creeping panic? Even Gold seems to recover.

    Warsh and Bessent will have interesting conversations within the next week.

  3. The U.S.-Israeli war with Iran has fractured the petrodollar loop at both ends, with oil-importing nations selling Treasuries to limit depreciation and Gulf producers unable to export oil. japantimes.co.jp/commentary/20 #commentary #worldnews #iran #us #oil #treasuries #usdollar #trade #energy

  4. China is quietly laying the financial plumbing to weaken the dollar's dominance by expanding the interest-bearing e-CNY at home and pushing blockchain-based cross-border payment systems abroad. japantimes.co.jp/commentary/20 #commentary #worldnews #forex #currencies #dollar #yuan #ecny #mbridge #china #us #tariffs #sanctions #treasuries

  5. I feel like the AI bubble won't pop until something pricks it. I think one of these might be that pin:

    1. Japan's debt may force them to sell US treasures. They have $1 trillion.
    2. EU retaliation - they could sell their treasuries because of the regime's imperialism.
    3. The US regime gains control of the Fed. This crashes the entire economy including AI.

  6. > According to the latest data from the US Treasury, #China lowered its T-Bill holdings by $900 million, from $757.2 billion in April to $756.3 billion in the month of May.

    > The sell-off marks China’s third straight shedding of #Treasuries since February, when the Asian powerhouse held $784.3 billion worth of US #bonds.

  7. #China Abruptly Sells $8,200,000,000 in US #Treasuries As #Dollar Extends Massive Losses

    > You can see the accumulation of #gold in the reserves and the behavior of gold over the past 12 months. And it didn’t start with Trump’s policies. Of course, it started with #Biden when he froze the accounts of people connected to Putin

  8. Bloomberg: The #US will sell $22 billion in #30-year #Treasuries in a much-watched #auction today, giving #investors a fresh read on demand for #long-dated #debt. Yesterday’s 10-year auction showed investors are still eager to lend to the #government.

  9. The Federal Reserve had been gradually unloading Treasuries since mid-2022. Since Trump's foray into market chaos/universal tariffs, they've substantially slowed the unloading of Treasuries.

    2 points:

    1) Had they continued pace with dumping Treasuries, they would have contributed to the concern that US bonds were no longer safe.
    2) Had they re-started purchases of US bonds, no one would have noticed the selloff. This sure looks like evidence in support of MMT.

  10. The combination of interest rates soaring amid a slump and the currency plunging despite rising interest rates isn’t what we normally expect for advanced countries, let alone the owner of the world’s leading reserve currency. It is, however, what we often see in emerging-market economies. That is, investors have started treating the United States like a third-world economy.

  11. The premium investors demand to hold #US Treasuries rather than #German #Bunds - now apparently one of the safe havens of choice - has exploded.

    It's heading for its biggest weekly increase since the 1990s, which reflects the extent to which investors are dumping #Treasuries.

    The dollar is at the heart of it &, with #markets, it's always what's beneath the surface that can cause the most damage.

  12. The main casualty in all this is the #US #dollar.

    For 80 years, it's been the mainstay of the #financial system & the ultimate of safe havens, along w/ #Treasuries.

    But w/investors now doubting the reliability of the #UnitedStates as a #trading partner & fears creeping in about the stability of the #bond market, the dollar is bearing the brunt.

  13. Analysts & investors have pointed to this week's sharp selloff in #Treasuries & weakness in the #dollar as a sign of faltering confidence in the world's biggest #economy.

    "There's clearly an exodus from #US assets. A falling currency & bond market is never a good sign," said Kyle Rodda, senior financial #markets analyst at Capital.com. "This goes beyond pricing in a #growth slowdown & #trade uncertainty."

  14. Global #stocks fell & the #dollar sank further on Friday, while a manic #bonds selloff took hold in a brutal end to the week of tit-for-tat worldwide #tariffs that have fed fears of a deep #recession & shaken investor confidence in #US assets.

    The selloff in US #Treasuries picked up pace during Asian hours, with the 10-year note yield rising to 4.45%, gaining about 45 basis points in the week, the biggest increase since 2001, LSEG data showed.

  15. US #Treasuries [bills, notes, #bonds & TIPS] are starting to sell off again too. The yield on 10-year Treasuries just climbed to 4.37%, the highest since February. Concerns about a rout in #US assets, including Treasuries, have gripped #markets these past few days. These assets are normally considered safe havens that investors turn to in times of turmoil.
