JJ Peterka Scores 25th Of The Season In Buffalo Sabres Loss To Columbus Blue Jackets | Highlights

A massive sell-off in U.S. bonds led a CNN analyst to sound the alarm about a rare "red flag" as financial markets reel.

The country saw a significant sell-off in U.S. bonds this week, driven by concerns over President Donald Trump's tariff policies and broader economic uncertainty. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note surged to as high as 4.53%, marking its highest point since February and a dramatic increase from Monday’s low of 3.87%. This reflects a sharp decline in bond prices, as yields and prices move inversely.

Allison Morrow, a senior writer for CNN Business, told anchor Jake Tapper on Friday afternoon that tens of trillions of dollars come into the U.S. from all over the globe.

"That asset, that bond, is considered to be one of the safest places any investor can put their money because it is backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government," she told viewers. "Ultimately a U.S. bond, a treasury, is a safe haven."

This, she said, is "important" to what happened this week.

"Normally in times of economic turmoil, we would see stocks sell off and investors go to bonds. That didn't happen. We saw investors selling stocks and bonds. And that is really a red flag because it's only happened a handful of times in history and its a signal that investors can't really see which way the economy is going. And they're putting their pencils down and saying, 'We're sitting this one out.'"

The economy is in a "precarious position," now, Morrow said.

The 10-year treasury yield is the benchmark for car loans, mortgages, and credit cards. When bonds are sold off, yield goes up.

"And that's exactly what we saw this week," she said.

Vice President J.D. Vance was taken to task by the conservative National Review's Andrew McCarthy for his constant running to X to post disingenuous attacks on opponents of the Donald Trump administration's immigration policies.

In a column posted Saturday morning, the legal analyst claimed the VP, a Yale Law School graduate, knows fully well the administration is denying immigrants their right to due process, and that Vance is making his claims more as a performance for MAGA devotees.

Labeling Donald Trump's second-in-command as "infuriating," he added the VP is "too smart not to know that the nonsense he spouts is nonsense. Well-framed nonsense, to be sure."

He then added, "Vice President Vance issued one of his claptrap-laden diatribes on social media Wednesday, slamming 'the media and the far left' who are 'weeping over the lack of due process' in the Trump administration’s illegal deportations of people it alleges — probably correctly in most instances — are members of criminal gangs."

Using that as a springboard, he noted that Trump's goal is to "illustrate that he has amassed uncheckable power," and for Vance that's "the point of the vice president’s post: Due process is for whiners, and if you’re 'weeping' over its sudden death, you’re the problem."

"Adopting the habit of Trump officials of making up their own facts as well as their own law, Vance argues that all the administration is doing is returning an illegal alien to his home country," he accused. "This is so mendacious it’s hard to decide where to begin — even accepting for argument’s sake Vance’s blithe claim that Abrego Garcia is an MS-13 member, which, again, Trump officials chant as a mantra but no one has actually proved."

"He says we who want the law enforced don’t have a plan for deporting 20 million people — and that’s true, for there is no such four-year plan; there’s just 'do the best you can to materially reduce the illegal population, get on a trajectory for bigger reductions over time, and then manage illegal immigration like we manage other ordinary crime.'" he wrote before pointing out, "But to flip it around, Vice President Vance does not tell us what his plan is for rapidly deporting 20 million people. That’s because such a plan cannot include faithfully executing the law. And he knows it."
