The last 2 times the U.S. credit rating was downgraded, it turned out to be a nonevent in the markets.
Everybody knows we can’t stop spending. That’s not big news.

In reply to rsotc. There will be a great reset one day. We will never pay back the debt. China and Japan know it. They really should not have loaned us the money. They knew we weren't good for it. The US has defaulted 2x already. First was during the continental congress and the second when they closed the gold window in 1971.

In reply to sirduke. You are likely correct from the articles digested this morning. Short term embarrassment only. Though the long term implications are serious. If we ever have the Dollar replaced as world currency kiss it good bye. And China is pursuing this aggressively.

In reply to rsotc. Stayed the course boat took on some water but now bone dry and gaining. Did anyone REALLY think all those trillions wasted would not one day come home to roost?

So hard to trust this gap down on Monday. The good thing is there is so much damn meat on the bone to the downside I dont feel an ounce of FOMO.

As I said the other day when the most recent /ZB & TLT trade hit the final target:

:https://rightsideofthechart.com/tlt-hits-3rd-final-price-target-close-to-new-lows/

…I continue to monitor Treasuries closely for a breakout in yields to new multi-year highs as that will almost certainly put the brakes on the current stock market rally. Something to continue to monitor next week….
