what does short of T-Bills mean?

There's not enough buyers willing to give the federal government the amount of money it's wanting to borrow.

The government can't let any crisis go to waste. A stock market collapse will wholly justify massive government intervention/action like FDR did. There won't be any other choice. The private sector will be wiped out and banks will be done with. What other choice is there other than more bailouts and work programs to keep what remains of the economy? Meanwhile, our hole will just get that much deeper and digging out will be impossible. A debt crisis is unavoidable but fixing it is politically toxic. We were sold out long ago by corrupt politicians that have lined their own pockets and those of their cronies.

so you think it is the collapse of the treasury market that is actually on the way? I trade part-time. I probably should have read the article.

The fed owes 30 trillion now, plus many more trillions in unfunded liabilities. Some dims in congress have openly said there's no reason to pay this off and to just keep borrowing. The Russians and the Chinese have said they're divesting themselves of the dollar. More and more people are starting to see what's going on and more and more people are unwilling to buy government bonds. So, when the Fed has to buy their own notes, it's only a matter of time till the house of cards comes tumbling down.

Shorting a financial instrument, in this case Treasury Bills, means to take a position where you "sell" or "go short" in the futures markets. It is a prediction that they will be less valuable in the future at which time you will then "buy" them, collecting the profit on the "short sell"..



Makes sense if this piece of shite spending bill passes and sends rates through the roof

Ammo is an extremely safe place to park cash. Very long shelf life and easily stored.

For an individual borrower to be turned down on a loan, it means you have to cut spending or find an additional way to bring in money.

The Federal government will just make the money printer go BRRRRRRR!
