Moody’s on Friday bumped the country’s rating down by one notch to Aa1 from Aaa, bringing the agency in line with its peers. The firm cited the financing challenges tied to the federal government’s growing budget deficit and the ramifications of rolling over existing U.S. debts in a period of high borrowing costs.

The debt downgrade could pressure bond prices and raise yields at a time when the economy is already under pressure from President Donald Trump’s unfolding tariff policy.

The fundamental factor of less foreign demand for them and the growing size of the pile of debt that needs to be constantly refinanced is not going to change.

The downgrade comes after a winning week on Wall Street as investors cheered the White House’s deal with China to temporarily slash levies.
