Fed Preps Massive Bond Buying as Japan Dumps US Debt
Right now, the Fed is gearing up to buy massive amounts of US debt, but they’re not doing it to stimulate the economy. They’re doing it out of desperation. As one of our largest buyers walks away, a sure signal that the currency reset that we are all living through is accelerating. Meaning your dollars are losing value fast and that it has never been more important to make sure that you’re protecting your financial future outside of the fiat currency system with physical gold and silver. In case you missed it, last week the Federal Reserve quietly ended QT, quantitative tightening, or the process of letting assets such as US bonds roll off their balance sheet to shrink liquidity. The Fed has been tightening since March of 2022 in an attempt to fight the inflation that they themselves ignited by printing trillions in 2020. But now this phase is ending. Not because the Fed has run out of assets to get rid of. No, in fact, the Fed still has trillions left over from pre2020 on their balance sheet. And it’s certainly not because the Fed hit their inflation target of 2%. In fact, inflation is on the rise, currently sitting at 3%. And 3% is completely misleading as well, because that’s just how much inflation is going up right now. It doesn’t even take into account what we’ve already lost, which most estimate is around 25% in the last 5 years. But if you ask me, even that is conservative. But what’s changing today is a structural shift within the US debt cycle. See, inflation, while terrible for everyday Americans and for optics, it’s actually not really a problem for those at the top because inflation might be their only way out. inflation or a devalued currency, a currency that is continually worth less, makes the real value of the US debt worth less as well, meaning that it’s easier to pay off. Nominally, it stays the same, but the real value shrinks, which is very important when you’re dealing with $ 38 trillion in counting. In fact, by the time you finish watching just this video, the debt will have gone up roughly $60 million more dollars. But it’s not just the size of the debt that’s the problem. It’s the size of the debt coupled with declining demand. See, because the dollar has always been the global reserve currency, there has always been strong demand for US debt. But as fiscal uncertainty and geopolitical risk have grown, the demand is disappearing. There’s a tired and outdated saying, I’m sure you’ve heard it before, there will always be a buyer for US debt. Sure, that’s true. There’s a buyer for everything, but at what cost? That’s the question we need to be asking? Because as demand continues to decline, buyers are demanding higher rates of return or higher yields to take on US debt. Higher yields means that our debt costs more. In fact, today just the interest, the cost of servicing the US debt is over a trillion dollar, the third largest line item, right behind social security and higher than our entire defense budget. More interest means we have to spend more to finance that interest. By spending more, it means we have to issue more bonds because that’s how we spend. We create more debt. But more debt requires more buyers, which we don’t have. Do you see how this is a cycle here? And it continues to go around and around. But that declining demand, that is what is accelerating this spiral downward at a rapid pace. And history shows us what happens when nations reach this point. When unsustainable breaks, it’s an acceleration moving forward in a currency reset. A currency reset is both a process and an event. A process where confidence in a currency collapses often as a result of overspending which leads to inflation, hyperinflation or the rapid increase of prices and ultimately an official revaluation or devaluation of the currency which results in the fiat currency being worth its intrinsic value which is always zero. It’s what we’ve seen happen in Venezuela, Argentina, Weimar Germany, the list goes on and on. overprinting, inflation, hyperinflation, reset. Which brings us back to today with the Fed ending QT, Japan’s bond market, and what happens next. Over the past week, Japan’s bond yields have been surging with their tenure hitting the highest level since 2007 and their third year hitting record highs. But do not be fooled. This is not a boring technicality, and it most certainly is not a Japan-only problem. Japan has often been called the world’s largest creditor and this is largely because Japan’s rates have always been low. So, Japanese investors have always put their funds elsewhere, such as the United States. In fact, Japan is the largest holder of US debt. As Japan’s yields continue to rise, the math no longer makes sense for those funds to go elsewhere, which is why we are expecting to see an outflow of funds from the US back to Japan at a time when the US needs buyers the most. Every dollar that leaves the US and goes back to Japan is a dollar that you have to find a buyer for. And if the buyers aren’t there or they’re demanding too high of yields, well, who do you think is going to step in? the Federal Reserve, the lender of last resort. But what happens when they step in and start buying our own debt? They talked about ending QT, but it’s essentially restarting QE, quantitative easing, firing up the old printing press. And you cannot create more units of an existing currency without devaluing the existing units of said currency. This is how each and every single one of our dollars are worth less. This is where it becomes so important to make sure that you understand how to protect yourself throughout these specific scenarios. What we can learn from past currency resets. And I’ll give you a hint. It’s not going to be the dollar. It’s not going to be stocks and bonds. And it’s not even going to be real estate that protect you through this reset. Historically, time after time for thousands of years, there is one asset that truly protects wealth through the reset, and that is physical, tangible gold. It’s the exact same reason that central banks are buying gold in record quantities, because they understand what is coming next for the dollar and therefore the global monetary system that is based on the dollar as it is accelerating through this currency reset. As the dollar inevitably is going to be worth less and less, there is only one true asset that nations and individuals turn to during these times where trust is broken and it is gold. Because gold has intrinsic value. It doesn’t rely on counterparty promises. There is zero counterparty risk and you cannot print more of it. This is why for me, gold is not just another investment. Yes, it’s up 60% year to date. Yes, it’s outperformed the stock market, the magnificent 7 and Bitcoin. But that is not even why I hold it. I hold gold as my insurance policy against what is coming next because there will be a day in the future where everyone will look around and say, I do not have enough gold. That is what has happened time and time again. Now, if you want to learn more about currency resets throughout history and how different assets are impacted, as well as what you can do to protect yourself and the timeline we’re on, you can always download our free bill to endure report.

I want to make sure that I’m protected outside of the system again with real physical tangible gold that I hold, I own, I control, that no one else can touch.

The Fed just ended Quantitative Tightening without telling you why. The truth? Foreign buyers are walking, debt is exploding, and the dollar is being sacrificed. Now we’re headed straight into QE, currency devaluation, and global loss of trust in the dollar.

We must make a golden statue of yours. Thank you for great advices. We want webinar again. Go TAYLOR 👑🥇🏆🏅
Get your physical Gold and Silver before your money become toilet paper !
HI Taylor, you didn't mention stable coins. I thought the genius act was supposed to provide endless demand for bonds. How do the stable coins fit into this scenario?
Great show as always.
You can't print gold, but you sure can mine it. 2% inflation a year
Some of us in the UK (the UK holds the 2nd largest amount in US debt) are pushing Westminster to dump US debt, same in EU. Why? Because Trump and the US insist on interfering in our elections while offering up Ukraine to Russia. The US must be isolated just like Russia. I know that millions of us are boycotting US goods and services.
we might get a short term bounce in the 10 year treasury soon off the 200 day avg, but I think it'll be just that – short term
Thanks Taylor!
But … You can't eat metals
PRINT BABY PRINT. KEEP PRINTING THATS WHAT HAPPENS . INFLATION.NOBODY WANTS DOLLARS.
MEANS QUIETLY BACKOFF.
Hyperinflation is coming.
Taylor – you do such an excellent job at explaining this however you did miss the topic of MBS's which the Fed 'intends' to roll off. I don't think they've mentioned a target level for MBS' and no doubt it will be still way too high and will result in an overall increased money supply, but for completeness you should discuss the MBS roll off.
The CPI now counts only monthly increases, the current month over this month, a yr ago. The True inflation Rate has to be compounded, month over month for the last 12 months.
if i wasnt already married id propose….seriously though understanding of monetary and economic principle is a turn on…cheers….
EU think about sell 2,4 trillon dollar.
Time is up USA.
Interest will go up 2%
STOP CALLING THEM THE FED. They are a private company that has never been audited and all this debt we owe, we owe it to them.
Fed print money and give it to bank to buy it bond. No gold or silver oil assets is reserve before printing but Fed continue to create liabilities. Assets – liabilities & equities = 0. Liabilities – Liabilities = liabilities. What do you expect if not inflation. US is inflation will be double digits soon.
The US is going to pot.
You have interestig things to say, so why do you distract the viewer with background music?!
So everything is fine again. People are always making mountains out of molehills.
Taylor, it's time to stop using the phrase "fiat currency" because it is not comprehensible by 99.99% of the human population. Use the phrase "currency created by criminals" instead. Likewise, replace the word "politician" with the word "criminal" in your podcasts, please. You should be saying the word "criminal" as often as you say the word "gold" or "silver" in your podcasts. 42% of US citizens now identify as criminals, which is up sharply since Trump took office. Criminal activity is the underlying fundamental driver of the boom in PMs. End of story.
funny money
print as much as you can
before the shit hits the fan
then you disappear with all that money!
Well here's what I believe will happen in 2026.
The economy is going to crash and a global depression will happen.
Gold and maybe Bitcoin will become illegal and must be surrendered to the government at a reduced value.
Once the government has possession of gold and Bitcoin, they will revalue it much, much higher to pay off the national debt.
The average person will be plunged into poverty and slavery, while the bureaucrats become rich slave owners.
Trump's going to be blamed, but he didn't cause it. This has been instituted over decades.
Who are the suckers that's selling gold right now? 😅
You cant live a champagne life on a beer budget. STOP spending what you dont have!!!!😢😢😢
Gold silver and platinum is what we've got. Physical all physical. And yeah it's been going up lately which has got me wondering what the hell is going on
Why would the Fed buy bonds? Trump said the stock market is amazing. The economy is amazing unemployment rate as all-time low. Am I missing something?😂
I just buy up hundreds of options on gold futures contracts!
Plus, I also have hundreds of options on the S&P 500 Index (ES) & NASDAQ 100 Index (NQ) futures markets.
The WORLD is in trouble. All fiat currencies are basically worthless, requiring endless interest rate cuts and debt market interventions. If you haven't prepared by this point, shame on you.
Geopolitical risk…such as will the US confiscate my Dollars….VALID question.
Sorry Taylor…every time you said 'gold' I replaced it with SILVER!!!!
The System In America Is A Shame, The Central Bank's Buy Gold In Records Amounts, To Save Themselves , And The Difference In Short Funds ,
Comes In A Bail Out From The Federal Bank If They Look Like Going Under ,
The Banks Get The Best Of Both Worlds , Good Times For Themselves and Share Holders, Bad Times Covers By The TAX PAYERS , Legal Extortion !
They might as well have constant QE and stimulus, they are addicted after 2008… Can’t make money that isn’t free when nobody is working…
While the government is tracking 3% TruFlation US Inflation Index is reporting 2.70%
Buy silver fast. Physical silver. Don’t buy silver contracts.
This is a global crash to bring in a one world bank and a one world government…………666 ………digital chips…………..Jesus is coming .
The fed is buying worthless US debt to pnce again bail out themand US government better buy more gold against these criminals.
This is the Robin Hood story
Inflating the debt only works when the economy grows.
Who would seriously buy large amounts of US bonds now?
Silver halt
Lovely
Us prints money like eu to save their bonds..inflation..people will pay all the cost will "gang mps members" loot free…
U are too much gold bug. enough about gold.
In 1964 I was playing high school football. I came home from practice one day and had some spare change in my pocket: 4 quarters and 4 dimes. I put that spare change in a piggy bank and never spent it. I keep that change in a plastic tube and show it to people – pointing out that it is one oz of silver, now worth around $50. From spare change in a teenager's pocket to $50 worth of silver – that is how far our money has been inflated during my lifetime.
