How the Fed Funds Rate At 3.63 Is Reshaping Bond Ladder Strategy

The Fed funds rate has been stuck at 3.63 percent since May 2026, and the yield curve is finally positive after two years of inversion. Lucas and Luna explore how this plateau affects bond ladder construction — from the 2-year note at 4.20 to the 30-year bond at 4.93. They walk through a concrete example: building a five-rung ladder that captures the 10-year yield at 4.49 while maintaining liquidity in short maturities. They also discuss why Chairman Warsh's hawkish stance makes duration risk trickier than usual. If you've been wondering whether to extend duration or stay short, this episode gives you a framework for the decision. #BondLadder #FedFundsRate #YieldCurve #TreasuryYields #KevinWarsh #FixedIncomeStrategy #DurationRisk #2YearNote #10YearYield #30YearBond #BondInvesting #Finance #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #PodcastEpisode #InvestmentStrategy #InterestRates #BondMarket Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
