This is when the Junta will come to Americans and tell them, “It is time for your savings to save the US and the Planet.

Lock in your mortgage for 25 years. Interest rates are on the rise.

Unexpectedly?

If you were looking for 3 measures for a major economic collapse in the US for 2024...this is one. If no one lines up to pursue your bonds...it’s serious matter.

Makes me wonder about banking matters, and if a dozen banks are on the verge of falling apart.

Thim for the government to decide that your 401k needs to be saved from risky investments like stocks and corporate bonds and put into 100% safe Treasury bonds instead.

This year the US has to roll over 7 trillion USD in bonds and finance an annual deficit of around 2 trillion on top of it.

There's no way the US can find buyers of $9 trillion in bonds for one year. The Fed printed $8 trillion during COVID and will probably need to print $5 to $6 trillion this year.

Trump recently said that he doesn't want to be the next Herbert Hoover, but conditions are shaping that way for the next presidential term.

Paraphrasing the vax, US treasury bonds are safe and secure.
