It's been 234 Years since the 10-Year Bond Note deteriorated to this extent.
The United States Treasury's formation was a Year away - 1789.
9 States had ratified the US Constitution.
In order to pay for expenditures during the Revolution, Congress had only two options: print more money or obtain loans to fund the budget deficit.
Congress became far more dependent on the printing of money, which led to hyperinflation.
Congress lacked the authority to levy taxes - doing so would have risked alienating an American public that had gone to war with the British over the issue of taxation without representation for the Crown.
The first 6 Months of 2022 have been a disaster for Bonds.
Unfortunately, it is simply just beginning.
At present, the "Disinflation Wave" is in the trade as the Media / Wall Street ups the narrative and continues to bang the Commodity Rollover as evidence.
Typically (although we do not use History as a Guide as this is the largest Bear Market in History, it is unprecedented as we have noted for months) we see an 8 to 13 Month mismatch cycle for "Dis-Inflation".
Although Demand Destruction is being accelerated in Capital Stock losses, people eat, drink, drive... consume material things required for their very existence.
The most recent 4-week, 8-week, 13-week, 2year, 5-year, and 7-year auctions were a significant failure at a time when the FED reportedly reduced their balance sheet by 21B after a retracement for several weeks off the May 25th outsized and front-run dump of 51B.
Meanwhile, Reverse Repurchase pools continue to swell to new all-time highs, most recently 2.34T - earning 1.55% and safely out of perceived harm's way.
Depression concerns are clearly intensifying.
2 Year Bond Futures continue to Invert intra-day.
M1 / M2 / M3 continue to flee to the Big Lots Pool.
Negative GDP reinforces the Demand Destruction - Consumers will out how Inflation peaks... Central Banks claim to want Positive Real Rates.
Consumers are rolling over, demand destruction is seeing far broader participation as Savings / Investment / Incomes decline at the highest ROC's in decades.
This would require an outside Fed Fund Futures move, one that appears improbable for the near term.
I'd like Ashley Trevort Twins - Seems improbable as well.
The difference is, that the odds favor my wish. The Bond Market will retrace in select points on the Yield Curve, but ultimately the Negative real rate to Inflation will find its Afterburner.
