AGG: Dollar Recycling System Halt May Trigger Largest Ever Bond Market Crash
The recent crash in AGG and other bonds and a declining US dollar suggest a significant repricing for debt monetization risk. Foreign selling of US Treasuries, particularly by countries like China, is potentially driving this shift, indicating a potential long-term collapse of the US dollar recycling system. The correlation shifts between AGG, the US dollar, and equities highlight foreign activity's critical role in the bond market's changes, ending AGG's historically inverse correlation to stocks.

Countdown To Tariff Day
Ahead of the April 2nd tariff unveiling, US equity markets were under renewed pressure this week on downbeat data showing a further dip in consumer confidence and hotter-than-expected PCE inflation. As a turbulent first quarter wraps up, the updated GDPNow - the Atlanta Fed's closely watched GDP tracking model - forecasts growth of -2.8% overall and -0.5% on a "gold-adjusted basis." Posting weekly declines for the seventh time in the past nine weeks, the S&P 500 finished lower by 1.5% - extending its drawdown to 9.3% from its record-highs.

Fed Looms As Sentiment Dims
US equity markets remained under pressure this week as encouraging inflation data and a deal to avoid a government shutdown were offset by further tariff escalations and weak sentiment data. Markets struggled to agree on how the FOMC will interpret the latest economic data, with recent "hard data" showing encouraging trends while "softer" survey data has painted a far-bleaker outlook. Following its worst week in six months, the S&P 500 finished lower by another 2.3% this week - its fourth-straight week of declines - which dragged the index into "correction territory."
