  • The Silent Risk of Treasury Bill Laddering

    With the ten-year Treasury yield holding near five percent and the two-year at four point seven six, investors are flocking to short-dated bills. But this episode explores the hidden liquidity trap in Treasury bill laddering. Lucas and Luna break down how rolling over ninety-day and one-hundred-eighty-day notes exposes portfolios to rapid reinvestment risk when the Fed Funds rate is stuck at three point eight eight. They examine why the spread between short-term bills and long-term bonds has narrowed to just twenty basis points, creating a false sense of security for fixed-income managers who think they are hedging against volatility.

  • How The Treasury Bill Ladder Beats Higher Rates

    With the ten-year yield sitting near five percent and short-term bills offering nearly four, investors are facing a critical choice: lock in longer duration risk or stack high-yielding Treasuries. Lucas and Luna break down the mechanics of the bill ladder strategy, using real numbers from September 2026 to show why this approach minimizes interest rate exposure while capturing current income. They examine how liquidity needs, tax efficiency, and reinvestment risk make short-duration debt an attractive alternative to long bonds in a flattening curve environment.

  • The Liquidity Crunch in Private Credit

    With the ten-year Treasury yield holding near five percent and short-term rates climbing, private credit funds are facing an unexpected liquidity squeeze. Lucas and Luna explore how this illiquid asset class, once considered a safe haven for yield, is now grappling with redemption pressures and valuation uncertainty. They examine the structural risks of locking up capital in long-dated corporate debt when public markets offer better transparency, and what fixed-income investors should watch for as the gap between private valuations and public reality widens.

  • How The Fed Hike Rewires Your Bond Portfolio

  • Why The Yield Curve Is Flattening Before It Steepens

    With the ten-year Treasury yield hovering near five percent and the two-year at four point six five, the market is pricing in a complex dance between sticky inflation and slowing growth. Lucas and Luna dissect why the recent compression in the two-to-ten spread might be a temporary liquidity glitch rather than a recession signal. They explore how corporate credit spreads are widening independently of Treasuries, creating a rare divergence that offers tactical entry points for fixed income investors. The episode breaks down the mechanics of the current curve inversion and what it means for duration risk in a high-rate environment.

About The Bond Investing Podcast with Fexingo: Treasuries, Corporate Bonds, and Fixed Income Strategy

From the publisher's feed

Lucas and Luna dissect the fixed-income markets with the precision of a bond trader reading a prospectus. Each episode tackles a single corner of the bond universe — from 2-year Treasury note auctions and inverted yield curves to investment-grade corporate debt, high-yield junk bonds, and municipal paper. The hosts anchor every conversation in real-time market data: today's 10-year yield move, the latest Fed funds rate expectation from CME FedWatch, credit spread widening in the energy sector. They explain how duration, convexity, and call provisions affect returns, and they do it without jargon for its own sake. Lucas walks through the mechanics of a bond ladder or a TIPS strategy while Luna asks the hard questions: Why does this matter for a retiree? How does a pension fund use this? What happens to a corporate bond portfolio when the economy tips into recession? The show serves professional investors, financial advisors, and serious individual bond buyers who want to understand the plumbing behind the price. Every episode is built around a live chart — the yield curve from , a corporate spread table, a CDS index move — but those visuals are described, not shown, so the conversation stands on its own as audio. By the end, you'll grasp not just what happened in bonds today, but the structural forces that will shape returns for months ahead. What happens to your 30-year Treasury when the next fiscal crisis hits?
