alt Hacker NewsOK, so I have $1 trillion in Treasuries, and I sell them. What do I do with the cash? Presumably I'd like other government debt. The trouble is that I need to put this into another market, so what do I choose? The total euro government bond market is 8 trillion euros, so I'm probably gonna move that market in a way that's not good for me. That's the point I'm trying to (badly, apparently) make.
Am I missing something here?
The act of selling them distributes money from someone else to you.
I recommend productive investments. Whatever the other person who had the money was doing. Growing corn, for example, or making cars.
