In a recent update from COINOTAG on April 3rd, Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, addressed the implications of U.S. Treasury bonds and the challenges posed by Trump’s tariff policy. Hayes emphasized that the tariff strategy underscores a commitment to rebalancing economic disparities. He pointed out that foreign investment in U.S. bonds heavily relies on the availability of U.S. dollar exports. Without these exports, the inflow of foreign capital into the bond market could significantly diminish.
Furthermore, Hayes suggests that it is crucial for the Federal Reserve and the broader banking sector to implement measures that support the healthy functioning of the bond market. This may necessitate a shift back to a loose monetary policy, commonly referred to in market circles as “Brrrr,” implying a need for increased liquidity to stabilize the market. The potential effects of such policy adjustments could have broader implications for investors and the financial landscape at large.
