As Donald Trump prepares to take office, concerns about 'bond vigilantes'—investors who can significantly impact government policy through market reactions—have resurfaced. With the U.S. debt-to-GDP ratio nearing 100% and borrowing costs rising, economic experts warn that similar to President Bill Clinton's experience, Trump may face pressure to adjust his economic policies. Rising bond yields indicate a lack of confidence in fiscal sustainability, suggesting that potential market turmoil could force Trump to reconsider his agenda, particularly regarding tax cuts and government spending.
