[Bank J. Safra Sarasin: U.S. Government Shutdown Imminent, Treasury Market Unlikely to Suffer Major Blow] Odaily Planet Daily News – Bank J. Safra Sarasin analyst Dario Messi stated that a potential U.S. government shutdown is approaching, but its impact on the economy is typically limited, and U.S. Treasury bonds are unlikely to face significant damage. Dario noted that the Treasury market would remain unaffected because this debate is unrelated to the debt ceiling. Unless the shutdown is prolonged, it is unlikely to severely disrupt the bond market. He added that while a government shutdown might weaken consumer and investor confidence, the bond market's reaction is generally restrained unless the shutdown persists. 'In particular, since the debt ceiling issue has already been resolved, Treasury payments are unaffected, and the risk of major turmoil in U.S. government bonds appears very low.' (Jin10)
