THE STABBING WOUND OF HIS KNIFE The sky is mirrored in the puddles of residual rainwater, his face is cloudy, there is no friendliness, he just carries the wounds of the words, he is left to fly far to the edge of the city, even though his anger is getting worse, revenge is just being spewed out.
Which wound doesn't look for its bruises when the skin feels like it never asks why the night always feels innocent, the signs are already read in all the pamphlets, always stabbing the knife repeatedly while gulping fate that never cares.
It is the story of a wound that screams at night but does not dare to commit suicide for the past, even though it feels like the wound has been incubating for a long time in its nest and cannot be rejected if that is all one has.
HOW TO UNDERSTAND MISSING Put your palm on your chin, looking far away, silent, meditative, touching the memory of the line of your hand's shadow, as if looking at a flower.
Reason. longing cannot be exchanged for rain, let alone incense and money flowers - just understand that longing as orphans and widows must be treated in a different way.
WHY GRIEF DIVIDE WOUNDS For you, the sky is no longer the limit of the earth, life is just a matter of understanding giving birth to the possibility like a butterfly of a fragile twig where it rests.
Why didn't your grief end when I could only remain silent like a stone and you shared the wounds that were born before falling in the lap of the moon on the last night.
Legs are tied tightly powerless to run howling? roar with all your heart but only in the world itself call? call the real savior call the light of the heart although loud shouts, but mute no one knows you are still there
US federal debt currently stands at a staggering $31.4 trillion, the highest it’s ever been. That matters because it’s approaching the maximum limit that the government is legally allowed to borrow.
The debt ceiling is the government's borrowing limit that can only be raised through congressional authorization. That money, according to the U.S. Treasury Department, is needed for the government to meet its existing legal obligations, including social security and Medicare benefits, military salaries, interest on the national debt, tax refunds, and other payments. A critical week for negotiations on raising the debt ceiling got off to a rocky start as White House talks ended with no agreement.
The US may default as soon as 1 June, causing a global economic catastrophe, if the limit is not raised by Congress before then.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen also warned of an “economic catastrophe” if the U.S. fails to raise its debt ceiling in the coming weeks.
The closer the nation approaches to the edge of the debt limit brink, the more skittish US and global financial markets may become. The last time this happened, the US saw its credit rating downgraded and interest rates on its existing debt go up. Even if the nation avoids tumbling over the fiscal cliff, the US economy could suffer.
What happens if the US defaults on Treasury bonds? If the United States were to default on its Treasury bonds, it would have serious consequences for both the U.S. economy and the global financial system. Here are some potential effects:
Financial market disruption: U.S. Treasury bonds are considered one of the safest investments in the world. If the U.S. defaults, it would undermine investor confidence and cause severe disruptions in global financial markets. Interest rates would rise sharply, bond prices would plummet, and investors would demand higher yields to compensate for the increased risk.
Loss of investor confidence: Defaulting on Treasury bonds would damage the reputation of the United States as a reliable borrower. This loss of confidence could lead to higher borrowing costs for the government in the future, making it more expensive to finance deficits and carry out essential functions.
Economic contraction: A default would likely trigger a significant economic downturn in the United States. Interest rates on mortgages, car loans, and other forms of credit would rise, making it more expensive for businesses and individuals to borrow. Reduced consumer spending and business investment could lead to job losses, lower economic growth, and increased unemployment.
Global economic impact: The U.S. dollar is the world's reserve currency, and U.S. Treasury bonds are held by central banks and investors worldwide. A default could undermine confidence in the U.S. dollar, causing it to depreciate and creating global financial instability. It could also spark a broader economic crisis, impacting trade, investment, and the stability of other economies.
Legal and political consequences: A default on Treasury bonds would likely result in legal challenges from bondholders seeking to recover their investments. It would also have significant political ramifications, potentially leading to public outrage, loss of trust in the government, and even political instability.
It is important to note that the likelihood of the United States defaulting on its Treasury bonds is extremely low. The U.S. government has a long history of meeting its debt obligations, and even during periods of political gridlock or financial strain, steps have been taken to avoid default. Nonetheless, the consequences of such an event would be severe, and it is in the interest of the government and the global financial system to prevent it from happening.
We have seen April CPI to be at 4.9%, lower than last month by 0.1%, down from a recent peak of 9.1% in June 2022.
Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices (which has been widely seen as a better predictor of future inflation) was 5.5% in April, down from its recent 6.6% peak in September.
Maybe it is time for us as investors to look whether past rate hike have really help to bring down inflation.
Market did not really rally up after we have positive inflation data, so where could be another area we can look at by looking at how U.S. indexes react to different inflation data?
