James Van Straten: Western governments increasingly losing control over long-term bond markets
Western governments lose bond market control

James Van Straten warns that Western governments have lost control of the long end of the yield curve.

He suggests that measures such as bond buybacks, draining the Treasury General Account (TGA), and quantitative easing are inevitable responses to the current situation.

Van Straten has previously observed expanding liquidity in the financial system as trends such as onshoring and tokenisation continue. He has also commented on Bitcoin’s performance relative to its 50-week moving average. His latest remarks focus on government responses to yield curve pressures.
