Everyone, this is serious! The U.S. debt crisis is no longer just a 'wolf is coming' situation; the wolf is really at your door! 🏠$ASTER

The latest data shows that the marketable U.S. public debt has unprecedentedly surpassed $30.2 trillion! Total debt has soared to $38.4 trillion. What does this mean? In just seven years, the scale has doubled! 🤯

💣 Two Major Triggers for the Debt Bomb

1. Pandemic Spending (2020): To address urgent needs, a staggering $4.3 trillion was borrowed in a single year, causing the debt curve to soar! 🚀

2. Structural Deficit + High Interest Rates: Federal spending has long exceeded revenue, and with the Fed's rapid interest rate hikes, the cost of refinancing has skyrocketed like a rocket!

🔥 Hell of burning money: Interest rates are higher than the defense budget!

Currently, the cost of high interest rates is brutally laid out: for the fiscal year 2025, just the interest expenses are estimated to blow away 1.2 trillion dollars! This figure is second only to Social Security allocations and is higher than the defense budget! ⚔️ No wonder Trump blasts Fed Chairman Powell every day for being too slow to cut rates, because these interest payments are really devouring the government's budget space!

⚡️ The battle for the next Fed Chairman: Don't let the 'White House spokesperson' take office!

Even more explosive is that the current chairman Powell is stepping down, and the next candidate is causing a stir! Wall Street giants are making a 'final push', warning Trump not to nominate his economic advisor—Kevin Hassett.

What are you worried about? The market fears Hassett being seen as a 'White House spokesperson', seriously damaging the Fed's independence! If he forces a major rate cut while inflation is still high, the market will interpret it as political interference, inflation expectations will soar, leading to a surge in the yield of 10-year U.S. Treasury bonds, and mortgage and consumer loan costs will jump, potentially dragging down the economy before the midterm elections in 2026! 📉

🎯 Conclusion: This is just the beginning...

The current 30 trillion is just the starting point. Keep an eye on how the Treasury will issue debt in 2026! This will directly affect global interest rate trends and your capital allocation! Are you ready to face this financial storm?
