What's more, changes brought by the pandemic have made it far more difficult to assess the state of the Treasury Department's expected payouts and inflows.\nBarclays' best guess for \"X date,\" or when Treasury will run out of money to pay bills, is October 29, but, Abate wrote, \"the confidence interval around the X date is likely to remain fairly wide.\" Moody's Analytics Chief Economist Mark Zandi has pegged the fateful day at October 20, while Beacon's Koltun thinks markets will start to get antsy in mid-October.\nThe very idea of a U.S. default remains so incongruous that the reaction in financial markets isn't the only unknown. The current showdown in Washington also has raised big questions about the financial-systems infrastructure. It's a bit like Y2K -- no one knows how the computers will respond.\n\"We do not believe and the market does not believe it's a likely scenario,\" said Rob Toomey, SIFMA managing director, capital markets and associate general counsel. \"But it would be a real problem scenario for the system generally and operations and settlement specifically.\"\nPlumbing problems\nSIFMA, the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, is the industry association that deals with the mechanics of how securities like sovereign bonds trade and settle. The group has worked with financial infrastructure providers including Fedwire and FICC to try to devise some sort of playbook. For now, there are two possible scenarios:\nIf the Treasury Department knows that it will miss a payment, it would ideally announce that at least a day in advance. That would allow the maturity dates of the bonds in question to be changed: a Monday maturity date would be changed to Tuesday, a Tuesday maturity would be changed to Wednesday, and so on. These revisions would happen day by day.\nWhile that sounds relatively orderly, it still leaves many unknowns. For one thing, it could bifurcate the market for Treasury bonds and bills into those that are clearing normally and those whose maturity dates are being massaged, SIFMA told MarketWatch. That means a great deal of uncertainty around pricing and what it means for all the downstream securities pegged to Treasury rates.\nIn a second scenario, which SIFMA said would be very remote, Treasury cannot, or does not, give any advance warning of a failure to make a payment, and it just happens. That would be far more chaotic, \"a real problem scenario,\" as SIFMA says.\nStrangely, the securities in question would probably simply disappear from the system. That's because if a bond is supposed to mature -- and be paid -- on a particular day, the system assumes it has been. \"It just illustrates the fact that the system wasn't designed for this,\" SIFMA notes.\nIf that happens, there would be a holder of record for the debt on the day before the maturity was scheduled, who would be entitled to get paid. However, it's also likely that Treasury might pay some additional interest to make the bondholder whole.\nMany analysts, Zandi included, think it's highly likely that some sort of financial market freak-out -- think of the day in 2008 when Congress initially failed to pass the Troubled Asset Relief Program legislation meant to address the financial crisis -- would stop any of the scenarios SIFMA envisions before they happen, or a few minutes after midnight on the day they will.\nBut as Koltun put it, \"Even if it's just for a moment, the credibility that's lost, could be a permanent hike in Treasury rates and that has cascading effects on financial markets across the world.
