How the ECB Rate Hike Reshapes US National Debt Arithmetic

Episode 52 of The National Debt Podcast. Lucas and Luna drill into the ECB's first rate hike since 2023, triggered by Iran conflict energy costs, and what it means for US Treasury borrowing costs and fiscal arithmetic. With the 10-year yield at 4.45% and 30-year at 4.97%, they explore how higher European rates attract global capital away from US Treasuries, potentially forcing the US to pay more to borrow. They also discuss the yield curve's persistent inversion and what it signals about long-term fiscal sustainability. Plus, a brief listener-support moment tied to understanding the global bond market. #ECBRateHike #NationalDebt #TreasuryYields #GlobalBondMarket #IranConflict #FiscalPolicy #YieldCurve #FederalDebt #DebtToGDP #CentralBanking #Economics #BondMarket #USDebt #InterestRates #FiscalSustainability #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Podcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
