I am quadruple Ultra MAGA, I even have the super secret decoder ring which came when I bought my 4th case of Trump’s extra long ties. You America last libs just can’t see the bigger picture. Once factories come roaring back to America then you will see. I can’t wait to be on a factory floor putting the elastic band into underwear. And with hard work and a little luck in 4 or 5 years I’ll be promoted to making socks.

Behind the screen- just maybe true - Canada in cooperation with EU and Japan systematically selling T bills- driving up yields- driving up interest rates and risk of inflation- scared POTUS into the 90 day walk back and the multitude of important exemptions.
The assumption that the the rest of the world is powerless or unthoughtful is an error of ego.

He suddenly realized that it is not enough to bully Ukraine and threaten Greenland to give him access to Rear Earth:
It is not enough to secure supply of the rear earth, you have to have the ability to refine it as well.

I wonder WHO decided to shut it down, the 22% owner, or one (or both) of the 23% owners?

There’s a reason global leaders aren’t picking up the phone. While Donald Trump storms into trade wars like a jilted Monopoly tycoon with a Twitter addiction, the rest of the world is quietly reaching for the receipts. Not just figuratively, literally. They’re holding trillions in U.S. Treasury bonds and debating how fast or how publicly to remind us who’s really cornered.

Yep China will become the global consumer of all products hence saving the world.
Plenty dumb enough to believe that.
They are going to sell all US treasury’s for 10c on the dollar just to teach the US a lesson..lol
Thats already coming out on a loonie left media.
Me think you got this backwards. The dumb one believe in Trumpomania!!!
please explain your post, I was laughing at your post which intimated the opposite.
China fixing Vietnam, lol
next you will be saying the economies with a poor future will become reserve currencies, I can see you would believe that
Here’s one for the clown on this site that cant think past any left media.
as above - this is already going on - Treasuries are being sold at higher volumes - driving yields up. In turn this puts up pressure on interest rates, and the likelihood of recession. Conventional wisdom is this pressure drove the walk back for 90 days, and the growing list of exemptions.
now for my crystal ball -
after some time and gnashing of teeth - Trump will negotiate multiple deals - that look very much like the status quo - with maybe a meaningless concession or two - and then declare a great victory - and half the country will celebrate the victory loudly all over social media and fox news.

the value of a t bill and yield never changes for the issuer…less they diminish the value over time with inflation.
“Restoring America’s Maritime Dominance”
Good luck with that. If you believe that I have a near new Liberty ship to sell you. 
You cannot “restore” anything by trying to stop others from developing theirs.
We live in the present, not in the 1960s, when that MAY have been possible.
maybe they mean the Navy…
T bills are traded, bought and sold before maturity. When there are more sellers than buyers, the price drops, effectively increasing the implied interest rate - driving up yields.
In normal markets the Fed can buy excess demand on the open market maintaining yield levels.
Today it appears there is a coordinated effort to sell more than the fed is willing to buy - and yields are rising.
and?
was answering this - is that what you mean ??
What is the issue for the gov with changing t bill prices/yeilds once sold?
Trump has another problem with his tariffs. The libertarian Koch brothers and Leonard Leo who selects Supreme Court judges are mad at him.

as above - increasing T bill yields, drive interest rates up, are inflationary, and can increase chances of a recession.
