I know basic macro economics/finance isn't a lot of people's specialty on here, but the bonds markets are absolutely in shambles.
We can't finance our future very long at these rates, and it's not just the US, though the US is the most shocking.
More rate hikes soon :(

"nothing ever happens"
the president is being told right now to pull out before it get's to late.
he is fighting a non manipulative market called bonds.
the great recession is around the corner and we are witnessing history.

Rising bond yields hit gold and silver hardest today, but traders have it wrong. The Fed's rate hikes won't be enough to slow inflation, but they will slow the economy, increase unemployment, and raise budget deficits. As inflation rises faster than rates, real rates will fall.

Private credit defaults just hit the highest level since 2008.
40–50% of that is tied to real estate.
Most people have no idea.

The yield on the 10-year Treasury just hit 5.27%. It first hit 5% exactly two weeks ago. At this rate, the yield will hit 6% by Nov. 5, just two days after the midterm elections. By then the interest rate on a 30-year mortgage will be over 8%. That'll be a major issue for voters.

The trope of “I may be evil but I’m not *insert relevant political position* evil” is so forced, lame, and gay.

If you watch a politician being interviewed, you will notice that they never actually answer the questions they're asked. Instead, they simply deliver rehearsed sound bites that promote their political message and somewhat relate to the question, but don't actually answer it.

Once again, gold and silver are being dragged down by rising bond yields. The 10-year is back above 5.2% and the 30-year above 5.5%. The impact of rising yields on the economy, federal budget deficits, and inflation is bullish for gold and silver. Buy now schiffgold.com

This is extremely dark
🦔The Blue Cross Blue Shield Association says insurers paid out nearly $1 billion more than usual from AI-assisted hospital documentation in 2024-2025. Hospitals use AI to scan records and find secondary diagnoses that human reviewers missed. More diagnoses means higher reimbursements. But treatment levels haven't gone up.
BCBSA's SVP of data science said AI is "identifying more billable conditions, not sicker patients." Insurers now deploy their own AI to deny those same claims. Patients pay for both through higher premiums.
My Take
This might be the most American healthcare story I've ever read. Hospitals bought AI to find more things to bill for. Insurers bought AI to deny those bills. The technology cost money on each end and the tab went straight to patients through higher premiums. A billion dollars moved and no one got any healthier. The only thing that changed was the size of the invoices.
Two sides of a trillion-dollar industry found a new tool to fight over the same pool of money and the person in the hospital bed pays for all of it. Premiums go up, denials go up, and the AI vendors collect from everyone. If you want to know who AI works for, stop reading the press releases and look at where the money goes. In healthcare it went straight into the billing department.
