TLT very sensitive to rate wobbles given term length

I ponder, “can ‘they’ really let rates drift up due to natural risk / reward imperatives?”

The natural thing to do for currencies of print-thrifts is to head down, but when such involves an international reserve currency used in 80+% of global trade, how can the currency go down.

In the absence of possibility of downward adjustment relative to other currencies, what then happens? And to bonds denominated in said currency?

Thus commodity inflation? Or not?

If commodity inflation, does that not crimp economies using commodities, meaning all economies?

Etc etc

I do not have conclusion.
