The United States recently posted a record monthly deficit for November, 150.4 billion dollars. This is the 26th straight monthly budget deficit and November is only the second month for the fiscal year. When we add in October the deficit is already at 290.8 billion, that’s already double what the entire budget deficit was for 2001. So far for the new fiscal year, our government has spent 585.7 billion with revenues of only 294.9 billion.
With jaw dropping numbers like these it should be no surprise that bonds have been selling off, the biggest sell off in fact since the collapse of Lehman brothers.
Yesterday, Moody’s officially warned the U.S. that if it continued massive deficit spending that the the U.S. risked getting its credit rating down graded. We have already seen the U.S. get down graded in the past 60 days by all five of China’s credit rating agencies.
Unfortunately, the western debt crisis is just beginning and we believe over the next decade the global economy will be re-balancing wealth. Asia specifically is on the rise and in our opinion, its not going to stop for a long time.
