  • The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) cautions that unchecked government borrowing poses a significant threat to global financial stability.
  • Sovereign bond yields in major economies, including the US, UK, and eurozone, have risen due to increasing debt supply and inflation concerns.
  • France's government collapse and the US's projected $8 trillion debt increase under Donald Trump's proposed tax cuts amplify market anxieties.
  • A supply-demand imbalance in the US Treasury market is leading to record unsold government debt, with investors reducing allocations to long-term bonds.
  • The BIS emphasizes the urgency for policymakers to act, warning that delays in addressing fiscal challenges could trigger market disruptions with global repercussions.
