Macro Rumor First seen

Posts claim US government will backstop equities, driving flows to hard assets

Posts on r/Bitcoin and r/CryptoCurrency argue that the US government will not allow equities to crash in real USD terms for a prolonged period, calling it a matter of national security tied to its AI commitment, and that this will cause a tidal wave into hard assets. The posts describe the backstop as a "DoD put" rather than the Fed put, and cite feared civil unrest in Europe from an affordability crisis and reduced tax revenue from an equity collapse as reasons spending cuts would follow. No figures, sources or confirmation are given.
