📌RE: US Fiscal Debt Situation
Think there is a common misconception that foreign holders are currently divesting from US Treasury bonds.
However, the truth is that the total $ amount of USTs held by foreigners has continued to go UP.
Includes China, Japan, UK etc
Yields have probably failed to go decisively lower b/c:
1. Ongoing Fed QT
2. Total Debt has increased more than growth in foreign + other domestic holdings.
Implication: You need all 3 types of buyers -- Fed, other domestic, and foreign buyers to purchase USTs for yields to go lower b/c the debt pile is already growing so fast...
No enough about US fiscal debt.
Enjoy the 4th of July! 🙂
