Episode notes
Failure to accurately calculate the value of treasuries and appropriate contracts for hedging creates significant volatility in long-term interest rates. When interest rates decline, the ideal response is to purchase additional treasuries, while rising rates necessitate selling them. This volatility stems from a substantial amount of refinancable mortgage debt, impacting all borrowing costs, as the yield on treasury bonds serves as a central benchmark. The interconnectedness of housing market structures in the U.S. versus healthcare systems in other nations highlights that U.S. decisions in housing significantly affect the pricing of virtually all global assets.
