With the Fed potentially backing away from the quantitative easing (QE) programs in June, the US government will need someone to buy roughly $130 billion of new bonds each month for the next year. So the question is, "Who will buy them all?"

Right now, that is entirely unclear.


It sure points to the possibility of the purchase of Treasury instruments in retirement accounts becoming mandatory, in some fashion.
