Twitter "experts" are panicking over falling bond yields like itβs the end of the economy.
Spoiler: itβs not.
Hereβs how yields actually work.
Had to post this video on twitter because men in suits are perpetuating the notion that people are dumping treasuries.
I think we are all too plugged in.

Well explained. The question is if they have to issue new bonds at higher rates and that's not so clear on social media. If the coupon stays the same, there hasn't been a price change.
True for new issuance, but the yields on these charts come from the secondary market. When prices go up, yields go down, even with fixed coupons.
Genuinely asking. Why do you hold the mic?
Sound quality is better closer to my mouth. Plus it gives me something to do with my hands.
Thatβs fair. Iβve just noticed it in a lot of videos like this. I have a pair of the DJI minis and I never noticed a big difference between sticking them to my shirt or having in front of me. For audio quality. I also like the lower end bump from having them closer to my diaphragm.
The hands thing makes sense to me though.
Just wanted to a get your take. Thanks!
