Trump Threatens Retaliation Over Potential Bond Sales

Donald Trump has threatened “heavy retaliation” against countries that may begin selling US bonds or stocks as a means of pressuring Washington. This warning comes after a period of tension in US relations with other countries, including the crisis over Greenland. Several pension funds from Sweden and Denmark have already begun reducing their investments in US bonds due to concerns about the US economy. European countries and Canada hold a combined total of over $3 trillion in US bonds.
