Episode Details

The yield on thirty-year US Treasury bonds is the highest it’s been in nearly two decades. 

So why are investors demanding a higher return in exchange for lending money to the US government? And why should Australians pay attention?

Carrington Clarke and ABC Chief Business Correspondent Ian Verrender break it all down on ABC Business Daily.
