Glossary entry: bond vigilantes I have added this entry to this blog's glossary at the request of some commentators. I stress that in an area as complex as this, the entry can only be an outline. Bond Vigilantes The term

"The term "bond vigilantes" was almost certainly coined by financial journalists seeking a bit of drama in their otherwise humdrum reporting. [This] makes markets sound as if they share plots with Clint Eastwood films...."

"As the sole manufacturer of dollars, whose debt is denominated in dollars, the U.S. government can never become insolvent, i.e. unable to pay its bills. In this sense, the government is not dependent on credit markets to remain operational. Moreover, there will always be a market for U.S. government debt at home because the U.S. government has the only means of creating risk-free dollar-denominated assets." ~STL Federal Reserve

Small correction, Mark: ‘That’s not how economics works TODAY.’

Since the 1970s, economics has fundamentally changed.

The U.S. government can’t go insolvent—it can always pay its bills.

It doesn’t rely on credit markets to operate.

Above-target inflation and higher nom growth will prevent debt-to-GDP from exploding, #Fed always has the ability to step in if necessary, and Govt could regain some «fiscal discipline» - chart @darioperkins.bsky.social #TSLombard

Caution:
Using the #BondVigilantes metaphor can lead Govt to make bad decisions - like cutting spending too soon or too fast out of fear of market judgment. In reality, markets want confidence, not punishment.

Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Bond Market? The House G.O.P.’s Trump-backed “One Big Beautiful Bill” makes a reckless three-trillion-dollar gamble with America’s creditworthiness.

“the #U.S.government relies on foreigners, at least in part, to finance its gaping deficit, and much of the world regards the #Trump Administration as a clown show, or worse. This is not a recipe for #financialstability or keeping the #bondvigilantes in check.” www.newyorker.com/news/the-fin...

I’m new to the #bondvigilantes fan club. Look forward to seeing their reaction.

And here they go again... The #bondvigilantes giving trump& the @gop kneebending Congress a reality check slap across the face. "Big beautiful bill 4 billionaires" not being appreciated by the BVs. At least someone is standing up.

Trillions of investment from the Middle East into the US may or may not happen in the future. Trillions of new debt because of tax cuts for the wealthy will definitely happen if passed by Congress. #bondvigilantes

Through the tumult of the last week, one thing has become clear. The global economy is here to stay, with or without us

This week, the adults in the room didn’t argue. They didn’t grandstand. They just reminded the world who still runs the global economy.

Imagine you owned many rental properties fully mortgaged and all the mortgages were not renewed because of you bad credit.

A 🧵 thread...

1/ The real reason behind the #tariff flip??
US Treasury Bond coordinated sell-off.

Carney's influence as PM perhaps?

The bond market doesn’t do press conferences. It doesn’t need to. Yields moved. Tariffs paused. That’s how the real adults speak. Quietly. #BondVigilantes #G7

Bloomberg: “The #bondvigilantes have struck again,’’ said Ed Yardeni, founder of Yardeni Research. “As far as we can tell, at least with respect to #US #financialmarkets, they are the only 1.000 hitters in history.’’ #markets
