I think there's a lot of hyperbole out

0:01

there right now just given

0:03

you know, the administration, the war.

0:05

Um

0:06

we hear all the time about how, you

0:07

know, explosive this move in bond yields

0:09

has been.

0:10

If you look at the 400 days since Trump

0:12

was inaugurated,

0:13

this is the narrowest range in 10-year

0:15

yields that we've ever seen. The range

0:17

of the 10-year is 85 basis points over

0:19

the last 400 days. It's been a

0:20

remarkably narrow range. It doesn't feel

0:22

like it for some reason. Um

0:24

I just don't think this this this move

0:27

in yield is as explosive yet as it's

0:29

going to need to be if it's going to

0:31

disrupt the equity side.

0:33

>> Right.

0:34

I would just say I frankly I'm just

0:35

shocked at the whining about forward

0:37

guidance and the Fed. And

0:39

>> people complaining about it.

0:40

>> Yeah, and there are people that have a a

0:42

big self-interest in the Fed in the Fed

0:45

giving forward guidance. So, it's people

0:46

in the media that now going to have to

0:48

work a little harder. And it's also some

0:50

of the hedge fund community which is

0:52

saying like, "No, you know, I I want

0:54

>> I want to be spoon-fed.

0:55

>> Yeah, I want to I want a green light all

0:57

the time."
