Amazing. Treasury returns tend to be inversely correlated to the overall economic conditions. So when the economy (and employment rate) is doing well, Fed hikes interest rates to prevent an overheating economy, so treasuries lose value. When the economy slows, the Fed lowers rates, treasuries do well.

The people running the Treasury social media account live in opposite land, or they know they're spreading propaganda.

Wait is this an actual post by an actual gov agency?

Edit, also just noticed how last year was positive yet they still coloured it red lol

"A Classic Franklin Story: Franklin the Turtle Presses Charges For Copyright Infringement" when?

Percent of what? I don't understand this graph.

These people are fucking retarded.

Bonds are supposedly safe. You buy them because the rest of the market is unstable or potentially so.

It’s not a flex. You move to safe investments in times of worry. There’s more fear in the market so people are hedging their bets.

How is this not blatant copyright crime? I don't understand how these guys keep getting away with using copyrighted images and music with zero consequences.

The people who make these type of pictures are going to Hell for the warcrime of making these images. They all can face the wrath of my autistic hatred for all I care!

Bond purchasing is bound by (confidence in the government's ability to pay back * bond payout) / (confidence in the stock market * expected stock payout)

With that in mind, please notice that the latter Trump bar is much lower than the former and remember that while the economy sucked in 2019, we weren't all meming about the active stock bubble about to destroy the market. The expected value ratios haven't changed as well.

This isn't the win you think it is
