Yield Curve Steepener & Yen Carry Trade Unwind Risk
From Macro-To-Micro Options Power Hour recorded on Sep 3, 2025
In this short clip from Macro-To-Micro Options Power Hour, recorded on Sep 3, 2025, Samantha LaDuc and Hans Albrecht discuss how shifting yield curves, Fed policy expectations, and global currency moves are shaping risks for equities, bonds, and the dollar.
They break down why steepening curves signal fiscal dominance over monetary policy, why bonds may stay weak despite rate-cut hopes, and how the yen carry trade continues to fuel U.S. equities.
The conversation also covers upcoming catalysts—including the jobs report, the Sept. 17 FOMC decision, and potential BoJ interventions—that could drive volatility.
