    "The Bond Market Is Going To Continue To Be A Problem" | Bill Fleckenstein
    May 15 2025
    It's said that the "Trump put" on financial markets is not on the S&P in this second term, but rather on the 10year US Treasury yield.The rise in Treasury yields since 2022 has sent the cost of servicing America's federal debt to record highs, exceeding spending on national defense for fiscal year 2024.US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has indicated his and the President's desire to get the 10year yield comfortably under 4%....but that's proving difficult.In fact, after falling to 4.1% two week ago, the yield has quickly shot back up to near 4.5% as of the day of this recording.Why is it proving so tricky to tame bond yields?And what will it mean for the economy & markets if they can't be?For answers, we have the great fortune today of turning to veteran money manager Bill Fleckenstein and founder of Fleckenstein capital.WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?

  • Stephanie Pomboy: We're Not Out Of The Woods Yet

    Stephanie Pomboy: We're Not Out Of The Woods Yet
    May 14 2025
    Progress on trade deals has returned investor optimism to the financial markets.The S&P has regained all of its April losses and is now green for the year.But the growing sense that “everything is going to be OK” ignores the elephant in the room, warns macro analyst Stephanie Pomboy: stubbornly high bond yields.The longer the US 10year Treasury stays near or above its current 4.5% yield, the more that over-leveraged companies are going to start stumbling.We discuss the implications should that happen. We also war-game out what it will mean for the economy & financial markets should the Trump Administration succeed in implementing its policy targets….as well as what it will look like if he fails.#recession #marketcorrection #tariffs
