Billionaires are shorting the U.S. Government, expecting U.S. Empire bankruptcy from Drumpf!    • Trump’s FIRST Campaign Promise INSTANTLY E...   Drumpf's plan would tank economy worse than the Great Recession of 2008. Tariffs are a regressive tax on the poor.
Exports and imports will go down. The labor shortage on the low end will be from the increased militarization of the government.
Billionaires are shorting the U.S. bond market assuming Drumpf will bankrupt the U.S. Empire meanwhile he's whining about his fake website company. Economists estimate $78 billion a year in regressive costs to U.S. consumers per year from tariffs. $2500 to $7000 a year per person. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieqQg...
While China has stopped buying U.S. treasury bonds, while China still owns 11% of U.S. debt, while China has diversified its Ag imports. China will bankrupt the U.S. - the billionaires are already shorting the bond market assuming the U.S. government will soon be bankrupt. Private debt in the U.S. is just as bad as the government debt. China can easily dump the 10% of U.S. debt China owes thereby immediately bankrupting the U.s. empire - the petrodollar.
"The benchmark 10-year Treasury rate rose by as much as 18 basis points the day after the election, pushing the overall rate on the bond to 4.47 percent. The price of bonds and their yield move inversely, with prices falling as rates rise. A rising yield on Treasuries raises the cost of the U.S. federal government when it borrows new money or rolls over existing debts."

"In anticipation of rising rates, some prominent investors have already been shorting the bond market. For example, billionaire hedge fund manager Stan Druckenmiller recently announced that he’s betting against U.S. Treasurys, with exposure of 15 to 20 percent of his portfolio, according to news reports.
The amount investors are estimated to have made from running bets against – “shorting” – renewable-energy stocks in the wake of Trump's election, according to the Financial Times.
"if the Chicago boys, the neoliberals and the Washington consensus, has its way today are we going to have the end of civilization?...In the West they're moving into NeoFeudalism. We're moving back into this kind of polarized economy. If you don't prevent a financial oligarchy from taking over, ...you're going to have a Dark Age, when all the money is at the top of the pyramid & you've killed the domestic market, you've killed growth...."

Predatory Finance Regulations to be Gutted by Drumpf Admin:
"Currently, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau oversees banks' consumer fee income and intends to impose stringent rules as to how much banks can charge for services This will enable them to earn higher fee income and support the top line, which has been reeling under pressure from volatile spread income."
"Hence, with less antitrust regulation in place, industry players are likely to record solid gains."
"July 2023, the U.S. banking regulators planned to overhaul the global capital requirement known as the Basel Endgame to boost requirements for the world’s largest banks by nearly 19%. Though in September 2024, the requirements were toned down, banks were still likely to maintain an additional 9% capital as buffers for future losses. Now, with the Trump administration being more in favor of deregulation, the banking industry is hoping for further toning down or scrapping of these extra requirements."

China had purchased 5.9 million metric tons of U.S. soybeans for shipment in 2024-25, representing 37% of all sales. That is China's smallest share for the date in 19 years outside of the trade war in 2018 and 2019. A year ago, China represented 40% of all U.S. soybean bookings, still below average...This means 2024-25 exports could also be at risk of shrinking, threatening to boost already ample U.S. stockpiles and possibly keeping a lid on prices.
