Bah! A Minor Setback!

Blast it all! Moody's downgraded the U.S. credit rating? Preposterous! As if a few measly basis points could ruffle the feathers of C. Montgomery Burns! I've seen empires rise and fall like dominoes after Smithers sneezes. This is merely a chance to exploit the system buy low and watch those pathetic interest rates crawl back up. Excellent!

Treasury Yields? More Like Treasury Yells!

These yields! The 30 year reached 5.03%? Back to November 2023 eh? It's like stepping back in time except instead of stealing candy from babies I'm stealing future prosperity from a nation too lazy to notice! And the 10 year at 4.479%? Pathetic! They should be groveling at my feet begging for investment. Smithers remind me to buy more bonds... AFTER they drop further!

Moody's Blues? More Like Moody's Blunder!

Aaa to Aa1? Oh the humanity! As if some alphabet soup from Moody's truly reflects reality. They whine about deficits and interest costs? Ha! Let them eat cake...or better yet let them eat lead! My financial acumen transcends their petty ratings. They are just jealous they don't have my wealth!

Trump's Tariffs? Fiddlesticks!

Trump's tariffs caused a panic? As if! Panic is for the weak! My tariffs would be so high they'd make the Great Wall of China look like a picket fence. Fear is an excellent motivator you see. People work harder when they're afraid they will lose everything to you! Burns is on the rise!

House Republicans? Incompetent Fools!

Tax cuts and spending bills adding to the deficit? What buffoonery! They're practically begging me to take advantage of their incompetence! 'Release the hounds!' I shall exploit their fiscal foolishness for my own personal gain. These politicians are as dumb as rocks!

Safe Haven? For Me Perhaps!

Treasuries a safe haven? Only for those who know how to manipulate them my friend. Global investors may question their safety but I see only opportunity. This is my chance to seize control to become even richer and more powerful than before. Smithers get me my abacus!
