So we got tariff delays and a great inflation read… and guess what? 10 year yields are now back to 10 AM Wednesday levels. Bond markets know. They know rewarding him for tariff drama invites more tariff drama. Bond markets are now scared of America. The faith has been broken.

Who needs covert Kremlin propaganda when we can now get it openly, from the member of Putin's inner circle who was visiting Washington last week?
