  How The Bond Market Is Rewiring Geopolitics 26.09.2026 7นาที

  The ten-year Treasury yield is at its highest level in nearly two decades, fundamentally altering how Washington funds defense initiatives and how allies price risk. Lucas and Luna explore the specific mechanics of this debt spiral: why higher borrowing costs force harder choices on military spending, how a stronger dollar impacts emerging markets facing their own refinancing walls, and what this means for the strategic balance of power as geopolitical tensions escalate without the cushion of cheap capital. #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #GeopoliticsAndMarkets #TreasuryYields #USDebt #DefenseSpending #StrongDollar #EmergingMarkets #InterestRates #FOMC #NationalSecurity #CapitalAllocation #BondMarket #InflationRisk #GlobalTrade #Macroeconomics #LucasAndLuna #EconomicPolicy Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  The Diesel Export Ban That Could Rewire Global Energy 22.09.2026 9นาที

  With crude oil prices sliding nearly twelve percent in five days to under ninety dollars a barrel, the Trump administration is quietly examining whether to ban diesel exports. This episode explores how a targeted restriction on refined fuels could create a massive arbitrage opportunity for US refiners while tightening global supply chains that have already been strained by shadow fleets and sanctions. We look at the specific mechanics of how refining margins work when domestic demand stays flat but international buyers face new hurdles, and why this policy shift might be more about geopolitical leverage than energy independence. #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #GeopoliticsAndMarkets #EnergyPolicy #DieselExports #RefiningMargins #CrudeOilPrices #USTradeBalance #GlobalSupplyChains #EnergyArbitrage #TrumpAdministration #TreasurySecretary #RefinedFuelProducts #InternationalTrade #EconomicConsequences #MarketVolatility #LucasAndLuna #FinanceNews Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  How Sanctions Are Creating Parallel Financial Systems 21.09.2026 11นาที

  When the United States and its allies weaponized the dollar through sanctions, they didn't just punish adversaries—they accelerated the creation of alternative payment rails. This episode explores how countries like India, Brazil, and China are bypassing SWIFT to trade in local currencies, using digital yuan pilots and rupee-rupee settlement accounts. We look at the specific mechanics of these shadow systems, why oil exporters are increasingly willing to accept non-dollar payments, and what this means for the long-term dominance of the US financial system. With global trade volumes shifting toward bilateral arrangements, we examine whether this fragmentation is a temporary disruption or a permanent structural change in how money moves across borders. #GeopoliticsAndMarkets #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #SanctionsEconomics #DeDollarization #SWIFTAlternatives #DigitalYuan #LocalCurrencyTrade #GlobalSupplyChains #CentralBankDigitalCurrencies #IndiaBrazilTrade #BRICSExpansion #FinancialInfrastructure #CrossBorderPayments #USDollarDominance #InternationalFinance #EconomicResilience #LucasAndLuna Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
