What Scott Bessent and the Treasury just did may have doomed us to a future of sticky/higher inflation. Reason why is not the dollar amount of their buyback move, but the path they chose. It all comes down to the debt problem, long term bond yields / market rates, and how that directly contradicts the best medicine against sticky inflation. This is a developing situation so it's important to pay attention to what they do/say and how it all unfolds.
