Russia Liquidates Its US Treasury Holdings

Hey bogart, pass it over to me.

 

Do you remember to take your meds?

 

Many anti-American leftwings don't even pretend they can debate or have any response.

 

I have no problem with debating, but i never try to debate outrageously nonsensical bullshit peppered with numerous examples of complete ignorance.

Now do you have anything that remotely resembles a rational opinion that you'd care to debate.

 

Whoever pays you to troll this forum should require you stay within the bounds of reality.

 

You clearly did not understand my post.

 

I read this was a rehearsal for China's divestiture, they wanted to see what effect this would have (insignificant -for the US). Chinese US Treasury holdings are an order of magnitude greater than Russia's were, so we don't know the effect a similar Chinese move would have for the US. Russia sold their US Treasuries with some depreciation and presumably reinvested in other instruments. The Chinese would be hard-pressed to liquidate a similar volume without considerable depreciation and it would be quite difficult for them to relocate the substantial funds to instruments with as safe a guaranteed return.

 

OTOH, selling at a discount, maybe the US treasury would be a buyer. They'd make a killing on the discounted spread.

 

Bravo Russia

 

I don't think sanctions affect Treasury transactions.

 

US trade deficit in trade with the EU = $ 110 billion
US trade surplus in financial services with the EU = $ 44 billion
US trade surplus at other services such as Google, Amazon, Facebook = 90 billion USD

Where is the US trade deficit again ... oh yes ... does not exist!

 

Asked and answered. You going to get around to making a point or do you just have an endless supply of stupid questions?

 

You clearly don't understand our economy

 

I hope CHina does the same throwing us head long into a recession caused by TRUMP and his *****.

 

That is laughable... Trump has not a clue what he is doing, taking notes from guys who were removed from office over 30 years ago. This is all a disaster waiting to happen. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken ****. That is exactly what Trump is trying to do in 4 years. And !!! He is trying to force it. We as a nation, corporations, and the people are in Debt up to our eyeballs. You can't just print more money and expect China, Russia, Euro, GB, and others to play along.
The dollar will collapse because at some point, the saudi's will turn their back on us and take the Yuan, Renembi, for OIL. Then we are screwed, Russia will work with China, so will Germany. We are right at that tipping point and Trump is pissing them all off. The only thing we have left is a military, will he threaten China ? Russia ? Germany ? NO !

Watch China unload their treasuries, I hope they do to teach all americans a lesson. YOu can't run on Credit forever, leverage every other country to do what you want FOREVER.. They are sick of it and Trump will blow it up in a bad way. He has no choice, there is no way to fix our debt without a Jubilee, or making American's pay for it with a one time hit to EVERYONES bank account.

 

Not according to Trump and the *****. We are already BRINGING back jobs, corps. are moving back "like never before" And all will be well in lala land...
We have a big crash coming and I think it is very soon. Major corp. execs just unloaded almost all of their shares. They used their repatriated money to buy back stocks after using QE 1,2,3 Free (1% loaned) money from the banks to buy stocks back from 2012 - 2017. Now, all they have is their additional profit from tax cuts, that isn't enough and the FED isn't going to give away money any more. How do corps. now pay off that large loan ? How do they buyback their own stock that inflated our Markets ? Junk bonds are piling up. Trillions of der... contracts floating out there via bank to bank.

All of this and was what triggered the NORMAL guy to THINK if he bought a car, a house, more goods he would help MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. THat he would get a big raise, maybe 10% and so would everyone else making for a NEW country. They buy that BS ! We are so totally screwed, but people have faith that takes them right down LOSERS LANE ! All the rich people are laughing at the GUllible WASP...
This is a way is a repeat of 2006 - 2008. I remember well when the Bush nut jobs were screaming, buy another house, they will never go down... The economy is great, Kudlow and KRAMER said so on CNBC.. All those posters disappeared for 5 years. Then came out when the Obama Birth cert. came about. That is when Trump hooked them through racism..

 

You should avoid talking about economics. You are not good at it. Take a class or two. Read a couple of books.

 

Is there nothing that your hatred of Trump won't cloud and confuse? Rooting for a recession. You are the problem.

 

I only hate Trump as much as I hate the Bankers, the FED (banksters) and both sides on congress for allowing this to happen. I graduated in 1983 and that is when the FRAUD started. Our, my parent grew up in the PERFECT Utopia, only to have the greedy filthy rich change the terms to punish working class and enlighten their pocket books.

SO, I prepared this time to make mass fortunes (lots of money to you and I) a drop in the bucket to the thieves on wall street. I am ready for the fall, and want it to happen, it has too, you can't keep borrowing until WHEN ? It is a BS system NOW, fine in the 60s and 70s. Not my fault, thus, I have to do what is right for people I know. I can't make a difference by PRETENDING all is well.

So, my hatred runs deeps, I live on the TRUTH, not the fairy tale so many buy into. I made a lot of money on the last one, 10 fold this time. Making money both ways up and down, now we are just floating, no money to be made during that time.

 

Perhaps the answer is to look for a better paying job.

 

It will not help. You have become very angry with Him.

 

Is that all you can say? Show your arguments.

 

Is that all you can say?

 

But you have to be fair. Not Trump put the US in this position. It all began during Reagan's reign. But what Clinton, Bush Jr. and Obama did was a disaster. It is they who are to blame for what is happening now.

 

Get a job.
