Episode Description from the Publisher

The autumn wind is blowing in and it's taking interest rates higher as the Federal Reserve boosted the overnight lending rate by a quarter point last week, as expected. Investors may be getting used to higher for longer interest rates and inflation as the stock market has been running in place for more than one month. It’s the bond market that everyone is focused on, and it’s the focus of Robin Wigglesworth’s new book, “A Fabulous Debt”. He joins The Express with the history of bonds and why they are so pivotal in the geopolitical tensions that define 2026. Plus, Warren Buffett steps down as Berkshire’s Chairman, but his legend continues. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
