Welcome back to another episode of Finance U with Paul Kiker and myself. Today we’re diving deep into “The 7.6 Trillion Dollar Conundrum.” In the next 12 months, an astonishing amount of debt is maturing. But what’s truly alarming isn’t just the sheer volume; it’s the interest due on this matured debt. Imagine, for a moment, the gravitational pull that this might exert on the debt markets. As these bonds roll over, will the market absorb them with grace, or will we see ripples that could unsettle investors?
Let’s not forget the intricate relationship between oil and our financial markets. As resources trend in unexpected ways, the oil market could serve as an intricate, multifaceted mirror reflecting back on the broader picture of our economy. And amidst this backdrop, there’s a surprising player: the writings of Will Durant. Though not your typical financial pundit, Durant’s historical perspectives provide a unique lens through which to understand our present economic challenges.
Yet, the story doesn’t end there. The Fed, an institution built to stabilize our financial infrastructure, has been casting a long shadow on the youth of America.
