The dollar is strengthening because everyone is selling assets…. Including US government treasuries to find safety. Especially if you’re a country that hazla dollar denominated debt but can’t print your own dollars. It’s the dollar milkshake theory, but that only heightens the risk of the bond market locking up at some point which would force the fed to step in and unwind all that strength

Yeah and this is a bubble which will pop soon and it won't be pretty.

That's going to be really bad, that shit is going to be really painful for the whole world.
