History has shown that it's always best to wait for official reportage from the other party dealing with Trump, before making any informed conclusions, especially when the only available source of information is Trump's deranged social media posts or baked reports from the government controlled wing of the mainstream media.
that is actually my point

not much is coming out of the chinese side
they are doing more of a "we can't confirm or deny"

⚡Iran says it has not agreed on uranium enrichment terms with US.

Iran said it has not reached an agreement with the U.S. on terms for its enrichment of uranium.

"The subject of our enriched material is a very complicated one, and we have now come to the conclusion with Americans that, since it is very difficult -- we are almost in a deadlock on this particular question -- let's postpone this to the later stages of our negotiations," Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said in a press conference Friday.

"So for the time being, it is not under discussion, it's not under negotiation, but we will come to that subject in later stages," Araghchi said.

the us treasury has to rollover/refinance around $10T of its debt this year

every percentage point is worth $100B




in addition

the ai bubble runs on cheap credit

bond yield spike foreshadows economic pain
there will be a cascade
inflation spike, interest rate hikes, gdp growth slump, market correction

conventional wisdom is that in the post-modern era (after gwbush slump), you pull the fire alarm at 5%
so we are barreling ahead into uncharted territory




oh and because $ is the reserve currency

much of the planet will get hosed
that sh*t will not be contained in new york
