How a Steeper Curve Signals a Slower Economy
from The Bear Market Podcast with Fexingo: Surviving Downturns, Buying the Dip, and Long-Term Resilience · host Fexingo
In this episode of The Bear Market Podcast, Lucas and Luna unpack why the 30-year Treasury yield climbing to 5.23 percent while real GDP growth cools to 1.5 percent is a warning sign for the economy. They discuss how the long end of the curve reflects inflation and fiscal concerns, what it means for homeowners and small businesses, and why the stock market's calm might be misplaced. Using specific data from August 2026, they explain the mechanics behind the steepening curve and what it signals for the broader economy. A look at how the bond market is often a smarter predictor than the stock market. Also, a brief note on how listener support keeps the show ad-free. #TreasuryYields #30YearTreasury #YieldCurve #RealGDPGrowth #BondMarket #EconomicSlowdown #Inflation #Homeowners #SmallBusiness #StockMarket #August2026 #BearMarketPodcast #Finance #Investing #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #MarketSignals Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
