2 Question Tuesday® – 02/10/2026 – What If the U.S. Loses Its Safe Haven Status and China Sells U.S. Treasurys? What Happened to the Plan to Make Tech Companies Pay for New Power Plants?

Welcome to 2 Question Tuesday. This week’s questions were:

  1. What if the U.S. loses its safe haven status and China sells U.S. Treasurys?
  2. What happened to the plan to make tech companies pay for new power plants?

Phil, Mike, and Larry talk about Chinese regulators advising banks to rein in their holdings of U.S. Treasury bonds, citing concerns over concentration risk, market volatility, the safe haven status of U.S. debt, and the appeal of the dollar. Then they talk about the plan by President Trump and several governors to compel technology companies to fund new power plants, what happened to the plan, and would this hurt technology stocks?
