Which economist says that U.S. Treasury bonds are still the safest and most secure investment?

To be precise, it is not a certain economist who said that U.S. Treasury bonds are still the safest and most secure investment. This is indeed a fact. The reasons are as follows:

1. U.S. Treasury bonds are essentially Guaranteed by the economic strength of the United States. The fact that the United States is the world's largest economy cannot be denied at present, and the U.S. economy does have some problems, but the severity of the problems may not reach the level of debt crises like those in countries such as Greece.

2. Since the scale of U.S. Treasury bonds exceeds one trillion U.S. dollars, it is supported by a huge amount of U.S. dollar liquidity. As an asset, its liquidity is the best. In other words, if you have tens of billions of dollars in U.S. Treasury bonds, you can sell them at any time without anyone taking them over or suffering too much loss due to price cuts. In this sense, gold does not have this advantage, because even gold transactions worth billions or tens of billions of dollars may cause drastic changes in gold prices. This is also the reason why our country cannot buy large amounts of gold.

3. Compared with the bonds of other countries, the yield changes of U.S. Treasury bonds are stable and the risk is relatively small.

However, due to the current global inflationary pressure, the effectiveness of the Federal Reserve's QE2 policy, and the cap on US Treasury bond issuance will soon be breached, will the US Congress, controlled by the Democratic Party, successfully pass a bill to increase the cap? , have brought great uncertainty to the future trends of U.S. Treasury bond prices and yields, and the possibility of a debt crisis cannot be completely denied.
