The Last Bailout: What If the U.S. Lost Bond Confidence? By Felix Brandt

What if the global economy's ultimate safety net, confidence in U.S. government bonds, suddenly snapped?

In The Last Bailout, financial analyst Felix Brandt takes readers on a riveting journey through the hidden architecture of global finance, exposing how trust, not gold, not oil, not even the dollar, is the real backbone of America's economic power. With clarity, wit, and deep insight, Brandt explores how decades of deficit spending, Fed interventions, and foreign faith in Treasuries have kept the U.S. afloat, and what could happen if that trust finally cracks.

This isn't just a thought experiment for economists. It's about your job, your mortgage, your savings, and the future of America's role in the world. From the creation of the "Dollar God" at Bretton Woods to the fragile geopolitics of today, The Last Bailout combines vivid storytelling with razor-sharp analysis to confront the trillion-dollar question no one dares ask: what if the world stops buying what America’s selling?

If you liked The Big Short or Doom by Niall Ferguson, you'll devour this explosive, eye-opening guide to the next financial reckoning.

Read it before the next auction fails.
