Each episode opens with a live data snapshot: the current fed funds rate, Treasury yield curve slope, and the latest reading on the Fed's preferred inflation gauge (PCE). Then they argue over what the data actually means. Should the market price in a cut? Is QT about to end? Why did one regional Fed president break with the consensus? The conversation is calibrated for the listener who already knows the difference between IOER and ON RRP and wants to hear two incisive analysts—not pundits—wrestle with the nuances. Lucas brings the journalist's instinct for what matters to Main Street; Luna pushes back with the macro quant's obsession with regime odds. Together they walk the line between monetary theory and the real-world bets that portfolio managers, corporate treasurers, and independent investors are making this week. No helicopter economics. No 'Fed will save us' cheerleading. Just a clear-eyed, numbers-driven interrogation of the central bank that moves every market. By the end, you'll have a sharper framework for interpret…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-18T12:19:18.798932+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-federal-reserve-podcast-with-fexingo-interest-rates-fomc-meetings-and-monetary-policy-7871696"},"episode":{"title":"Why the Fed Is Watching the Yield Curve Uninversion","slug":"why-the-fed-is-watching-the-yield-curve-uninversion","published_at":"2026-06-17T17:37:16+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-federal-reserve-podcast-with-fexingo-interest-rates-fomc-meetings-and-monetary-policy-7871696/why-the-fed-is-watching-the-yield-curve-uninversion","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-federal-reserve-podcast-with-fexingo-interest-rates-fomc-meetings-and-monetary-policy-7871696","url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/the-federal-reserve-podcast/episode-0058.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/the-federal-reserve-podcast/episode-0058.mp3","summary":"Episode 58 of The Federal Reserve Podcast with Fexingo: Lucas and Luna drill into the yield curve's recent uninversion after two years inverted. They break down what the shift from 4.43% on the ten-year to 3.63% on the two-year actually signals for recession risk, bank lending, and Fed policy. With the S&P 500 near 7,500 and markets pricing rate cuts, the hosts ask whether the curve is finally normalizing or just sending a delayed warning. Packed with specific data points and anchored to the latest FOMC thinking, this episode connects the dots between the curve, the neutral rate, and the economy's surprising resilience. #YieldCurve #Uninversion #FederalReserve #FOMC #MonetaryPolicy #RecessionSignal #TenYearTreasury #TwoYearTreasury #SOFR #NeutralRate #Inflation #BasisPoints #May2026 #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Podcast #LucasAndLuna Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"Episode 58 of The Federal Reserve Podcast with Fexingo: Lucas and Luna drill into the yield curve's recent uninversion after two years inverted.
