Druckenmiller Just Called Out His Old Friend at the Treasury

<p>Stanley Druckenmiller just used a Wall Street Journal op-ed to publicly break with his old friend and former Soros Fund Management colleague, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, over the Treasury&#39;s decision to more than double its bond buyback program. Jackson Mikalic, Michael Tanguma, Liam Nelson, and Brian Cubellis put four stories on the clock: Druckenmiller&#39;s &quot;Let the Bond Market Speak&quot; op-ed and what it means for the Fed&#39;s credibility, Bessent&#39;s own &quot;Economic D-Day&quot; sanctions warning to Chinese banks over Iranian oil, a trillion-dollar gold revaluation thesis gaining steam, and Apple&#39;s new $10,000 Mac Studio that can run frontier-level AI models with zero cloud dependency.
