$9 Trillion of the National Debt Must be Paid Back in 2026

The GDP of the world is $100 trillion. So if every single nation on earth spent 9% of their GDP on US debt then we could get through 2026. However, because of BRICS we know that 50% of the world's GDP is not going to be buying US debt, and because of Japan's financial woes we also know one of our biggest buyers of US debt will also not be a buyer. To make things worse it is very likely that many of these countries will dump the debt they have forcing the US to raise rates.

OK, so this means that 40% of the world's GDP nations will need to invest close to 25% of their GDP into US debt. Now this will be at a time when everyone is pumping all the money they have into AI to compete in this AI arms race. I think it is safe to say they will not be investing 25% of their GDP into US debt.

OK, so this means the US will be printing money to pay the debt. That is QE 5. The problem with this is that when you print money it is inflationary and the worst thing for bonds is inflation. No one wants to buy bonds that are paying 3% if inflation is 4%.

So what are other countries doing that are also in a jam? China just passed a law on "mandatory cremation" which means they are going into cemeteries, digging up the bodies, cremating them, and then selling the land to developers. That is the thing that all nations do in a situation like this, not necessarily cemeteries, but they will seize assets. The flip side of "you will own nothing" is that the government will seize what you do own to pay off their debts.

Nawl bro not all. I have for a lot of years now buy treasuries at auction every week. I have all mine laddered so get paid or credited each week as well as get debited each week.

So the money is already in the system we don't need every nation dropping 10 percent of their GDP or 25%. The government is simply rolling over the money already in the system.

Money market funds have like 7-8 trillion alone in them. You have pension funds, bond funds, and other income funds that hold short term treasuries. So the 9 trillion is already there.

Here is how it works I buy treasuries every week. I am laddered so I also get paid every week. Tuesday Uncle Sam credits my account what he owes me. Wednesday and Thursday is the auction period and settlement of cash. Friday he debits my account for what I bought at auction.

So what is he doing the money he gets from me on Friday he pays me out with it on Tuesday. Money market funds and other fixed income instruments are set up the same way. Those funds get credited and debited each week. So there is no changing of hands the cash is already there and just being rolled over. Given a new date when it is due.

Now with rates lower some of the new debt will now be pushed out to Notes instead of Bills. Making the interest payments cheaper in the longer period. So is no new money is money already there and just being rolled is all that is happening. Now it is adding to the overall debt but as far as having to be nations coming up with new money and a certain percentage. That is not the case it is what is already there just being rolled over.

That is not any different from what I said. Rolling it over is still investing in them. Yes, they make it simple to just keep doing what you are doing. For people with a little money who don't pay attention to the market, it is easier to do nothing and roll it over. But for people handling billions of dollars when inflation has devoured more of the money than the interest the US government is paying, it isn't easier. Every day they get complaints from investors that their fund is not keeping up with inflation. If you aren't keeping up with inflation they pull their money out so you have to sell holdings to pay off those who are withdrawing. Then you have nations like China, Indonesia, India, Brazil and South Africa that are "de dollarizing". They are net sellers of US debt, not buyers. Now if they sell their debt at a discount it is the same thing as the interest rate being paid going up, which means in addition to the $9 trillion there are other sellers in the market competing with the US selling the exact same product. This doesn't even mention Japan who was once one of our biggest buyers of debt but who now can't afford to be a buyer.

In addition we had around $27 to $28 trillion in debt in 2020. It used to be we sold primarily 10 and 20 year notes. Now it is almost exclusively short term. Prior to 2020 you might roll over $1 trillion a year, now we are up to $9 trillion. The debt hasn't increased 9 fold, rather it is a combination of the debt increasing by 30% and the only debt people are buying is short term.

So yes, you probably will see $1 trillion of this roll over easily. But after that it is a hard sell. The demand for our debt has been cut in half as BRICS is being formed. Central bankers aren't stupid, they are buying gold and silver for a reason. Yes, a lot of dumb money buys US bonds, but the attraction of US bonds to the rest of the world is wearing out.

This is not up for debate. The meteoric rise in the price of gold and silver is evidence, the rise of BRICS is evidence, the de dollarization that many major nations are implementing is evidence, and the fact that we can only sell short term debt now is evidence.

 

[ZNP]

The thing everyone needs to understand is that there is not "one" thing. If the only problem was the US selling debt that could be remedied. But it isn't. China is seeing their economic bubble burst with the US, Mexico and EU putting massive tariffs on their exports destroying much of their export economy. Japan is also in economic crisis. Iran is in total crisis. BRICS is being set up by half the world to replace the US dollar. We have declared wars on Russia, Iran, and Venezuela with another war brewing with China.

We talk about how after JFK was assassinated we woke up from our Camelot fantasy. Well the rest of the world has woken up from their trust in the US dollar.

The fact that we were able to sell our debt last year should be a good thing, the problem is it reveals that even though the US economy is undergoing massive existential issues, our economy is still better than the rest of the world. That is a scary thing, this tells you how terrible the rest of the world is.

I would agree with Trump that he is winning, but he is winning at the expense of causing chaos in China, in Iran, in Venezuela, etc. We have nuclear powers incapable of admitting defeat who would rather see the whole world burn than for them to be defeated.

Meanwhile it is undeniable that worldwide AI, robots and smart printers are putting millions and perhaps hundreds of millions of people out of work. It used to be that the Chinese put up with abuse because of the threat of death. But no more, the riotous behavior and talk in China is indicative of an imminent total collapse.

The world's economy had two major engines: the US and China. Both of these engines are on fire.

Very interesting what JP Morgan has done. They hold a tremendous amount of short positions and so when they cover those shorts the price of silver will skyrocket, it is called a "short squeeze". So far they have lost $2.4 billion.

However, instead of covering the shorts JP Morgan took possession of a huge amount of silver. So on the one hand they have a very large short position, on the other hand they own a whole lot of silver. Instead of closing the shorts, they went long on silver, now when they close the shorts the price on silver will skyrocket. Suppose it goes from $65 to $100 an ounce and their average cost to close the shorts is $85. On the short side they lose a tremendous amount of money, but on the long side the silver they are holding has now gone to $100. So then, in reality for every dollar they are losing covering the shorts they are gaining by the silver they own appreciating in value and they will end up with a plus side on their profit and loss balance sheet.

no one mentioned the "Japanese Carry Trade", which is nearly 25 Trillion dollars and is blowing up as I write.

which has supported our bond market for 25 years, now it is gone --- who will buy our debt?

and we have debt in the trillions which must be rolled over in 2026. That means inflation

We have created a bomb which could easily explode in 2026

Am I worried? No, the return of my KING of Kings is very very near.

I mentioned the Japanese economic crisis in post 2685 in the context of countries who will not be buying our debt.

The problem is not simply that the US has to fund $9 trillion in debt this year, it is also that the countries who were major buyers of our debt like China and Japan are not able to buy our debt and may actually become sellers.

Also, we should rejoice, an evil Babylonian influence pervades the world and we cannot plunder the strong man's house until we first bind the strong man.

Arbitrage

China is buying silver at $71 an ounce in Shanghai and the Comex is selling silver at $68.30 an ounce.

As a result China is draining the Comex and LBMA markets of silver, at which point all the naked shorts will be unable to cover --> and our largest banks will go bankrupt.

China has shut down exports of silver and Mexico, the biggest exporter of silver has also shut down exports to the US (temporarily -- they are taking advantage of the arbitrage). That is two of the three biggest exporters (China and Mexico) are not exporting silver to the US right now.

 

[ZNP]

Mexico and China produce 9 million metric tons per year. The US produces 1 million metric tons of silver. That is less than Russia produces.

The second domino: Peru SEIZES 35% of global silver (128% surge)

Peru is the third largest producer of silver.

This leaves Chile as the largest producer of silver still exporting. they produce 1,600 metric tons while the top three countries produce 12,000 metric tons. Russia is the fifth largest producer. So out of the five largest producer countries, only 1 is still exporting to the west.

LONDON IS EMPTY | Silver Vaults Hit 'CRITICAL LOWS' (Lease Rates Explode)

The silver markets began running a deficit 5 years ago in 2020, by 2022 you could predict what would happen which is what I did on this thread. Morons and idiots made fun because the financial collapse did not happen in a month. But as sure as an infestation of termites will destroy a house it was equally sure that the silver market would also suffer the same demise. In 2022 silver was $18 an ounce. Today, if you want to buy physical silver (forget paper, they have 600 contracts for every real ounce of silver) you must pay $80 an ounce. The vaults are empty and our biggest banks are caught in a naked short squeeze.

The people taking possession of silver are not speculators, these are central banks and industrialists who need the silver for their manufacturing.

In a speculative bubble prices don't make sense. The price of a tulip bulb can equal the price of a house. But that is not the case here. They cannot make solar panels without silver, and although all solar panels collectively use a lot of silver, on an individual basis it isn't that much. Same with smart phones and AI data centers. The consumption causing the deficit for the last five years was industry. But then everything changed, the missiles being used in all these wars take 1kg of silver each and Samsung just made a far superior battery for EV's and it also requires a lot of silver per car. Now there is panic, they can do the math and they realize there will not be enough silver to go around. The US made Silver a strategic mineral. This means in a war they can seize the silver. Four of the five biggest silver producers have either suspended all exports or have suspended exports to the west. Meanwhile China is paying $5 over the spot price from the Comex for silver, this is creating an arbitrage where you can buy the silver, take delivery, ship it to China and make an instant profit. It also means that producers are selling to China, not the US or Europe.

In addition to the industrial use for silver Central banks are buying up gold and silver as they are dumpint US bonds. This is because they are moving from the US dollar as a reserve currency to a gold backed security. What is happening to the US dollar is just as sure as what was happening to silver.

The Comex and LBMA are in such dire straights they are doing all kinds of things to prevent a total collapse and bankruptcy. But by doing that they are letting us see that all of their manipulation of the market has come to an end, it is certain that we will have a major bank run. Silver surpassing Apple as the third largest investment by market cap is the signal that the US economy and stock market is in the process of collapsing right in front of our eyes. In the last three years silver has quadrupled in price, but in the last six months it has doubled, that is exponential growth.

It was clear that $65 an ounce was a line that the big banks in the US tried with all their might to prevent being crossed, but now silver is trading as high as $80 an ounce. That means in just ten days these banks have lost $15 billion on their naked shorts and they haven't been able to reduce their exposure as the ratio of paper silver to physical is not 600:1.
