It doesn't matter how big. The bond vigilantes are gone. And the central banks are/were buying up the junk to keep the dollar high.

See the commodities vigilantes in action today. As the Fed is about to cut rates, crude oil, gold and silver are up nicely.

But what are the "bond vigilantes" doing? Nothing! In fact, Treasuries across all maturities from 2-yrs to 30-yrs are actually up.
