from The National Debt Podcast with Fexingo: Treasury, Borrowing, and Long-Term Fiscal Outlook · host Fexingo

In this episode of The National Debt Podcast, Lucas and Luna examine how the Iran conflict is driving up energy prices and creating a new fiscal strain on the federal budget. With core inflation at 3.3% and the 30-year yield flirting with 5%, they trace the connection between geopolitical shocks, consumer spending, and Treasury's borrowing costs. The hosts break down why the national debt has surpassed $38.5 trillion and how persistent energy inflation complicates the Fed's path forward. A focused look at the real-economy channel from oil fields to bond markets. #NationalDebt #TreasuryBorrowing #EnergyInflation #IranWar #FiscalPolicy #FederalBudget #BondYields #30YearTreasury #CoreInflation #GeopoliticalRisk #ConsumerSpending #FedPolicy #NationalDebtPodcast #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Economics #Treasury #FiscalOutlook Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
