🇺🇸 US National Debt

Rising concerns: Analysts warn the U.S. debt—now over $36 trillion—could trigger an “economic heart attack.” Interest costs jumped ~34% last year (to around $1 trillion), now exceeding defense and Medicare spending .

Taiwan’s caution: Taiwan’s central bank governor flagged the rapid debt rise and U.S. fiscal policy as potential risks to confidence in Treasuries .

Washington’s bill drama: The “One Big Beautiful Bill” (OBBBA) and Trump-backed tax/immigration packages are projected to add another $2.6–3.3 trillion to deficits over the next decade .

Bond market impact: Expect volatile Treasury yields and more issuance, with stablecoins possibly absorbing ~20% of short-term bill supply .
