We are having problems selling the 10 and 30 yr bonds.

And with the massive tax cuts looming, this is not good.

Conversely, the 2 yr yield is dropping. Signifies economic slowdown but fed will step in (the thinking)

Idk what's going on here. Pure chaos.

Makes sense...moving out bonds, putting upward pressure on yield.

Which, in turn, starts to affect mortgage rates and other key rates. (Iirc mortgage rated are tied to 10 yr)

Tuesday was Japan. Wonder who is doing today?

Was wondering same. China perhaps?

I

China is now calling for the world to unite against American economic tyranny. Japan and China are potentially coordinating treasury dumping while still having another bullet in the chamber, MBS.

We just pissed away 80 years of soft power economic advantage in 80 days.

I’m locking in a loss or three today and spending the cash on needs/wants.

It’s really time to change this whole idiot administration, because it’s abundantly clear that none of them have the faintest idea what they’re doing in regard to, well, anything at all

Thanks...all should read. Gives insight into just how simple minded this Administration is regarding their decisions. Got outplayed (again)

Japan, Canada and EU.

So this is another warning shot.

WH has lost all leverage at this point, and coupled with the unsubstantiated tariff levels he placed on most of our allies, he will be operating from a position he never had to before.

Question is what does he try to do next? Because he petty like that.
