Market MELTDOWN: Why treasury yields are TRICKING you

FOX Business' Dagen McDowell explains investors lending long-term to the U.S. government have lost significant money due to high inflation-adjusted yields. Lenders are demanding increasingly higher yields to compensate for perceived risk.

Dagen McDowell highlights that investors lending long-term money to the U.S. government have lost approximately 30% since early 2020.
