Show Notes
Yesterday equities were a little upset because bonds were a little upset because of weaker demand at a US bond auction. Should investors be upset? This is not a US version of the UK’s Truss debacle. Markets are not disorderly and government policies are not destabilizing. The absolute level of debt is not a concern—many countries (including the US) have had and do have higher debt ratios. The political polarization that prevents a policy for a sustainable deficit is a concern, but is probably more a background worry for now.
