MarketsInsider/Theron Mohamed/4-4-2023

“It’s not a banking system problem. It’s a US Treasury G7 sovereign debt, balance of payments problem. Treasuries underpin everything. It’s the collateral for the whole system. So if we’re going to have a Treasury problem, we’re going to have an everything problem.” – Luke Gromen, Forest for the Trees
