US May Lose Its 'AAA' Rating

Sectors:Banks | Financial ServicesCNBC.com | 10 Nov 2008 | 07:49 AM ET The

United States may be on course to lose its 'AAA' rating due to the large
amount of debt it has accumulated, according to Martin Hennecke, senior
manager of private clients at Tyche.



"The U.S. might really have to look at a default on the bankruptcy
reorganization of the present financial system" and the bankruptcy of the
government is not out of the realm of possibility, Hennecke said.

"In the United States there is already a funding crisis, and they will have
to sell a lot more bonds next year to fund the bailout packages that have
already been signed off," Hennecke told CNBC.

In order to solve or stem the economic slowdown, Hennecke suggested the US
would have to radically reduce spending across all sectors and recall all its
troops from around the world.

As for a stimulus package, there is not much of an industry left to stimulate
back into life, Hennecke said.
