So if I were you, I would be very worried about Trump’s first statement that he will renegotiate US debt when economy goes bad. Then two days later he basically says he will inflate his way out of debt. If the treasury markets starts believing such rhetoric (they are not believing it yet), the interest rates will go up fast and there goes all the real estate/stock/bond values.

Isn’t this eventually going to happen no matter who is president. It’s painfully obvious that we aren’t paying all the US debt back in full without inflating it away or defaulting on it. The only real alternative to not doing either one of those things is dramatically reducing medical care/military spending and running a budget surplus, but we just aren’t going to do either of those things with the status quo politicians. I wouldn’t worry to much about Trump telling us the truth of the economic debt situation. There’s an asset price/debt reset coming we just don’t know when it’s going to happen.
