A Healthy Economy and A Bear

Today on this special ASV, we’ll double down on our August 17^th episode, and continue looking at the economy, with a twist.  We’ll consider the 6-year bear market for bonds, and the shape of the yield curve today, as well as some of the noise surrounding it.

Weekly Verses:

But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of ⁱall kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.

- 1 Timothy 6:9-10 (ESV)
