There is a general misconception that the rest of the world now suddenly is considering selling US bonds over night, that is not the case. That would mean loosing lots of money. The real question is really, will the rest of the world continue to support a US deficit in light of US political turmoil?

There might not be anyone to pick up the US tab as new bonds are issued, which means a slow and gradual decline together with slow or zero growth, higher deficit, higher interest rate and high US inflation. A slow death, not a quick one. www.jpmorgan.com/insights/mar...

Sure. What many are forgetting is that they will need to borrow money from Denamrk to buy Greenland. No way that is happening.
