## Resource

Episode 108 of The Federal Reserve Podcast examines the 10-year breakeven inflation rate, which currently sits at 2.24%. Lucas and Luna discuss how this market-based measure differs from CPI and PCE, why it's a key input for Fed policy, and what the current level implies for future rate decisions. They also tie in recent CPI data and the inverted yield curve to give a complete picture of the inflation outlook. #FederalReserve #MonetaryPolicy #Inflation #BreakevenRate #TIPs #CPI #PCE #FOMC #RatePath #BondMarket #YieldCurve #Treasury #Economics #Podcast #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #InterestRates #InflationExpectations Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
