US gov. debt market collapse has started

This has MASSIVE implications for the economy

A thread 🧵 Image
2/ US government bonds have broken below a 40-year uptrend

After experiencing one of the most aggressive bear market since the 1980s Image
3/ Treasury bonds, typically 40% of an investor's portfolio, have led to significant losses because of their sharp decline
4/ Since March 2020, gold has outperformed Treasury bonds by +100% amid surging government spending

Government expenditures have risen from $3.4 trillion to almost $4 trillion in just 2 years Image
5/ Constantly rising government spending, financed by issuing more Treasury bonds, is a BIG problem

This has caused bond prices to drop significantly
6/ Treasury bond issuance in 2024 is expected to hit $1.9 trillion

This level is higher than even the peak of the 2008 Financial Crisis levels Image
7/ Although we expect a bounce in bonds, our long-term outlook on it is bearish

8/ A key factors that’s driving this long-term breakdown in Treasury bonds is the decline in labor force participation rate

This metric has shown a strong negative correlation to US government debt since 1999 Image
9/ The decreasing labor force participation + increasing government debt indicate economic strain

This is because of more people retiring and fewer people working

The combination has required the government to increase its spending Image
10/ With the aging US population and more people retiring

Labor force participation is likely to decline further

This would increase government debt even more, unless spending changes Image
11/ That’s why Gold has seen a lot of bullishness

Surging +35% since Oct 2023

There are 2 ways today’s market could play out

Let’s rewind to 1998 to see the best case scenario

This is unlike anything we’ve seen in a decade

A thread 🧵 Image

A thread 🧵 Image

Those fears are being fueled by Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs

Which some are comparing to President Hoover’s tariffs from 1930, right as the Great Depression began Image
