Russia dumps half of its US Treasury bonds. Russia has held a major selloff of US Treasury bonds, dumping some $47bn-worth of papers and momentarily dropping six places on a list of major foreign holders of US securities, recently released statistics for April have shown.
In just one month, Russia proceeded to sell $47.4 billion out of the $96.1 billion the country had in US treasury bonds in March. The latest statistics released by the US Treasury Department on Friday showed that, in April, Russia had only $48.7bn in American assets, occupying 22nd place on the list of “major foreign holders of Treasury securities.”
The FED is crashing the economy under trump through the QT policy. The opposite of the QE policy under obama where jews print money to pay for dumb nigger ideas. QT is where the FED sells the bonds it bought under Obama and blames the yield shock on tax cuts

>The US economy is growing faster than before It's a suicidal growth. Illusion. Get ready for the harsh reality smashing your greedy dreams. The shit is on it's way, the fans are turning full speed. There will be a collision between the two of them. MARK MY WORDS.
The shit is already here, Trump called it during the election that the sooner this fucker pops, the better because longer we wait, worse it will get.

>muh greedy dreams meme blame the rich kike bankers, those people are causing the problems not the common man.
Blake Mitchell
OK, yes I agree with you, but most the so called 'common' man are greedy as well. They have no problems making money,investing money in unethical ventures. Take for example the massive damage is being done to the water tables with the oil fracking in the USA. Fucking up your own drinking water supplies. How dumb and greedy is that, and so many farmers sell or lease their land for huge profits to the oil companies. The blame is not only on rich kike bankers, common man is also greedy and stupid, just on a smaller scale, but eventually adds up to a huge problems because there are so many of them,the greedy common man.
They stop doing QT 2 years ago. If anything they are try to tighten it. How are you this retarded?

China, which holds the most US Treasury bonds, also sold off some seven billion-worth of its American assets, from March to April, and now has $1.18 trillion invested in securities. Japan, which is positioned second on the list, in the same timeframe sold off some $12 billion, leaving just over a trillion dollars in US coffers. Ireland, which had $300.4 billion in April also managed to ditch over $17 billion in US assets.
A treasury bond is a fixed-interest government debt security with a maturity of more than 10 years. Treasury bonds make interest payments two times a year.
The mass selloff of US bonds by Russian follows numerous rounds of sanctions imposed by Washington against Moscow. The punitive measures targeted some of the most important sectors of the Russian economy, by limiting American financing available to Russian banks and business sectors across all major sectors. rt.com/business/429931-russia-sells-us-treasuries/

Because only the US will fall? I guess I remember being the only country affected by the 2008 recession.

>Massive selloff in bonds Yet yields barely budged. Because despite tightening by the Fed the amount of dollars the US can create is infinite. Not approaching it. Infinite.
Jaxson Jones
Long term rates are low and the yield curve is the flattest it has been in a long time. Russia selling bonds will help drive that rate up. Proof of the Russian Conspiracy if you ask me.
