It's the other way around but I guess that's what I get for getting financial news from whales.

Context: this brings Moody’s in line with the other agencies that made this move long ago.

They stated it is because of the lack of cuts to the budget and proposed “Big Beautiful Budget” That Congress is on track to raise the debt limit again and is paying over $1 trillion in interest for the 3rd year in a row with out taking action Basically because the GOP is not doing what they ran on

Every time this has happened, it has been because of Republican bullsh*t. Every single time.

Every recession or major market crash in my lifetime was republican BS. Reagan, Bush Sr, Bush Jr, and Trump. Clinton, Obama, and Biden all left the economy better than they found it. No idea why people ignore this when they vote.

Moody's is the only Wall Street company to show the world Trump and Republicans are scumbuckets. No Wall Street company or leader has said a word about Trump destroying this country. And all of you Trump and Republican voters need to stop watching country-destroying Fox and Newsmax.

Every one the US has had in its history is because of conservative fiscal and social policy. Jackson's specie and the slaver South's Tariff of Abominations=>Panic of 1837 and subsequent credit and housing crash. Then there is the 1890s 1st US Great Depression that lasted to either 1897 or 1907=>WWI.

The internet is available for easy reference. The first time our credit rating was lowered by S&P in 2011 over Republican bullsh*t. In 2023 Fitch lowered our credit rating over Republican bullsh*t. It was lowered today over Republican bullsh*t. Therefore, Every Single Time. Once again, Internet...

Omg. This is the first time ever that MOODYS downgraded. The post is not talking about fitch or s&p. It’s talking about Moody’s. Here’s a video on understanding context clues from the internet youtu.be/CyK01USxdg0?...

Re-read my sentence you could have searched for other times in the last twenty years that America's credit rating has been downgraded and found that it has been downgraded multiple times an why. You want to stick with only Moodys fine. Bye.

Between this and Klarna rehiring / delaying their IPO due to the utter failure of AI to replace staff... I feel we are entering the 'find out phase' we really desperately need. You can't hide from reality forever, debt is stupid and AI doesn't work. A massive correction is coming for ya America.

FED already buying treasuries to keep the 10y TB yields decent (passing from last year QT to implicit QE). Refinancing this and next year are a concern. Insane budget is a huge risk. Fed QE is inflation prone. Which adds to tariffs & supply shock inflationary pressure, which needs hawkish response🤯!

Problem for Trump is: admin doesn't want high yields because payout adds to debt. Trump people have absolutely no idea what they are doing. Besides, the long terms are going to remain at high yields because no demand for US long term since trust in us is now ZERO.

I wonder if this will be the weekend the American people decide to get up and stand up. But I doubt it. I don't know if that day will ever come. The Germans didn't rise up against Hitler. The rest of the world had to do it for them.
