Why would anyone lend the us money why If the us economy is doing so well are they running 63 billion dollar monthly trade deficits. Why are they going to run a trillion plus budget deficit. If the economy is doing great they should have budget surpluses to pay down their debt. Oldfx1 I haven’t looked at your links to monetary flow. I know all the central banks are printing money to purchase each other’s debt. It’s a joke. I as I stated before believe that China will stop buying us treasuries. They like anyone who has a common sense view of the system can see that. Us debt far to high. Rates will go up to represent the risk. They should already be at Greece levels. Rates up. Mortgage defaults , corporate defaults and the stock market will tumble.
