FAQ

Why Bearish?

The potential taxation on foreign Treasury holders risks reducing demand, driving yields up, like in 2018 when trade tensions affected bond markets.

How important is it?

Tax uncertainties are likely to directly affect investor behavior in the Treasury market, especially when debt issuance is high.

Why Short Term?

Immediate market reactions to tax proposals can shift demand for Treasuries quickly, similar to past contract negotiations leading to volatility.
