Episode Details

The Fed's preferred inflation gauge (PCE) came in better than expected — so why did mortgage rates still climb to about 7.6%? Dan explains how bond prices and yields move in opposite directions, why the 10-Year Treasury just hit its highest level since 2002, and how high oil prices plus a wave of government and corporate debt are pushing yields up worldwide. Plus this week's jobs, GDP and consumer confidence numbers and the latest odds for the Fed's next meeting.
