What the bond market is saying about a trump win.

Hmmm....

Trump and his horde were constantly bragging about the rising stock market during his first term.

Were they simple-minded, too?
LOL. You must be confused. It is leftists who claimed inflation was transitory and bragged about the stock market and the economy while millions of Americans couldn't afford to live anymore. Bill Maher said it best in clip where he blasted Democrats who were saying, "Screw your thoughts about living costs, look at our graphs on how well the economy and the stock markets are doing".

You did not answer my question.
 

Fed officials are worried about the inflation impacts from Trump’s policies, minutes show​


Federal Reserve officials at their December meeting expressed concern about inflation and the impact that President-elect Donald Trump’s policies could have, indicating that they would be moving more slowly on interest rate cuts because of the uncertainty, minutes released Wednesday showed.

Without calling out Trump by name, the meeting summary featured at least four mentions about the effect that changes in immigration and trade policy could have on the U.S. economy.

Since Trump’s November election victory, he has signaled plans for aggressive, punitive tariffs on China, Mexico and Canada as well as the other U.S. trading partners. In addition, he intends to pursue more deregulation and mass deportations.

However, the extent of what Trump’s actions will be and specifically how they will be directed creates a band of ambiguity about what is ahead, which Federal Open Market Committee members said would require caution.


The outcome is difficult to predict since Cheeto is so erratic. Financial markets hate that.
 
Wholesale prices came in lower than expected this AM. Bond yields still rose in anticipation of trump's inflationary policies.
 
Funny how the vast majority of campaign rhetoric was about economics and now no one wants to talk about it.
 
The bond vigilantes are demanding higher interest rates despite the Fed lowering overnight interest rates.

They are clearly worried Trump's tariffs and deportations are going to cause inflation.

If inflation rises, then you want the yields on your bonds to be higher than the inflation rate, or else you lose money on the deal.

The bond market thinks Trump is going to cause higher inflation so they are demanding lower prices for government debt.

If Trump pays attention to this message, then perhaps he will think twice about his threats of tariffs and deportations.

The cult fell for Trump's deportation hoax twice now. Trump promised mass deportations during his 2016 campaign, but he ended up deporting less people than Obama did. Not a lot of cultists noticed that, and now they have probably been fooled twice.

With Trump anxious to kick off inflation and spend wildly, one can understand why the stock market does not expect the Fed to lower interest rates any further.

How will tariffs and deportations cause inflation?
 
I guess you've forgotten already that president-elect Trusk (Trump/Musk) demanded the debt ceiling be entirely suspended.

With Trusk about to be sworn in with a Republican House and a Republican Senate, you can understand why the bond vigilantes are worried.
You realize the debt ceiling has been suspended for roughly the past 4 years, by a Dem Congress, for Xiden and Harris, right?

Wow. I am surprised this needs to be explained. Coming from you, I probably shouldn't be, though.

A tariff is an additional expense on top of the cost of an imported good. Therefore, it drives up the price of that good.

Duh.

During Trump's first administration, his far left protectionist tariffs cost Americans $34 billion a year, eliminated 300,000 jobs, and cost taxpayers $22 billion in rescue subsidies for farmers. And you can tell tariffs are far left because Biden repeated this idiotic mistake and kept them in place!


As for deportation, roughly 40 percent of farm workers are illegal immigrants. Undocumented workers do the shit jobs Americans won't do at any price.

Just ask Melania.

Immigrants also add to our economy with their earnings and spending.

Deporting illegals will result in crops rotting in the fields, driving up the cost of food.

This isn't a theory. It is a proven fact from previous bouts of deportations in past administrations.

Farm labor is called MIGRANT labor for a reason. It requires moving several times a year to where the plantings and harvests are. Not enough Americans will do that for any price.

Our quota system is seriously broken, and every time someone tried to bring a reform bill to fruition, the performative racist assholes killed it.

A farmer has to bring in his crops. When he is only allowed a small amount of legal workers, he has no choice but to hire illegal workers to put food on your table.

And the retard solution to this problem is to punish the farmer for hiring them!

Unbelievable.

The debt ceiling was raised twice, and entirely suspended THREE times, under Trump.

I have said too many times to count that the federal debt is an existential threat to our country.

One of the greatest tricks the Republican Party has ever pulled is they have miraculously convinced their rubes they are the party of fiscal responsibility.

Despite the fact that every time they have had full power, they have set new records in overspending.
