Who buys long treasuries other than the Fed?
- imtringued 5y agoPretty much every nation that has a trade surplus with the USA, worse it's also possible that a trade surplus between two non USA countries can result in the purchase of treasuries if they transact in USD. I say "worse", because this money can only enter the US economy by making the government run a deficit, if it does not do this then unavoidable unemployment is the consequence.
