108 Ian Bezek - How The Fed Is Losing Control

Bond yields have been rising globally, does this mean the search for yield is over?

With interest rates rising and the Fed hinting at a rate hike in December, the yield landscape is changing.

I sit down with Ian Bezek to discuss what's going on and what we can do about it.

A quick overview:

• Are rising yields here to stay?
• Where is all the global optimism coming from?
• How much control does the Fed really have?
• Are the Fed and the Markets at odds over yields?
• How do the Fed, big banks, bonds, and interest rates all work together?
• What do the problems at Deutsche Bank (DB) tell us about the yield landscape?
• Are we on the brink of a recession?
