Hi Hiveans,
Today, the US Stock Market was under pressure as the 10Y US Treasuries auction wasn't as good as expected.
For the past few days/weeks, Bond vigilantes have been sending us worrying messages.
As the US Budget is being discussed in the US and spending is once again expected to baloon due to tax cuts and increasing spending, the Bonds market has been performing quite badly.
Is Japan close to a big debt crisis?
Japan is grappling with a difficult fiscal situation as it has a shrinking economy and an ever increasing amount of debt,
If we remember, a few months ago, we had a big volatility even as some Hedge Funds got caught off guard on a carry trade involving the Japanese debt market.
The 10Y Yield in Japan is almost at 1.6% which is quite high considering recent years. If it continues to increases, something will break in the global financial system. Watch out...
Are you worried about yields reaching new highs?
It could be beneficial for Bitcoin in the long run but it should put pressure on the most recent bounce.
Stay safe out there,
