๐จ The global bond market is collapsing right now
The 40-year โalternative periodโ is over. The U.S. 30-year Treasury yield is 5.01% and Japanโs 30-year Treasury yield is 3.195% at an all-time high. Whatโs more shocking is that Japanโs 10-year Treasury bond yield has soared 49% (price has fallen) over the past year.
๐ค Why is this happening now?
The root cause is that the three structural cracks burst at the same time.
โ
Structural Return of Inflation โ New Era of Inflation Begins With Tax Evasion and Supply Chain Reorganization
โ
Realization of fiscal domination โ US national debt of USD 35 trillion, debt-to-GDP ratio of Japan surpasses 236%
โ
Collapse of global liquidity supply system โ Quantitative tightening of central banks and evaporation of global demand
๐ฅ But thereโs a surprising twist going on here.
The relief pitcher brought up by U.S. and European policy authorities is the stablecoin. The $230 billion stablecoin is currently expected to grow to $2 trillion by 2028, creating $1.6 trillion in new demand in the government bond market.
โ ๏ธ But this is a dangerous experiment.
If investor confidence disappears, there is a risk of โdefegging,โ and large-scale repurchases can rather amplify government bond market instability. This is illustrated by the case in which USDC plunged to $0.86 during the bankruptcy of Silicon Valley Bank in 2023.
๐ฐ The most shocking fact is this.
As the 25-year negative correlation between stocks and bonds collapsed, the traditional 60/40 portfolio lost more than its 100% share portfolio for the first time in 150 years, meaning government bonds are no longer a safe asset.
โ๏ธ We are now at a significant turning point in financial history.
The clash between digital currency and traditional finance is in full swing. Time will tell whether stablecoins will become a savior or Trojan horse in the government bond market, but what is clear is that this is a key variable that will determine the fate of the financial system in the future.
๐ Investors now need a fundamental review of their strategy.
With bonds no longer serving as safe assets, it is time to think deeply about real assets such as gold and inflationary hedge assets.
