Treasury yields have gone up as the dollar's value has actually weakened as normally you'd expect as Treasury yields go up, that the dollar would strengthen because there would be more demand for American assets.

The way that we plug that deficit, the way that we we finance the spending that doesn't come from American taxpayers is through issuing debt that then is in the form of U.S. Treasuries.

real concerns that the dollar may be losing some of its safe haven status.
