Aahan Menon of Prometheus Macro returns to Monetary Matters to explain why he still thinks bonds offer a poor risk/reward relative to stocks. He argues that job market weakness is the result of reduced immigration, in other words, weak supply of labor rather than weak demand for labor. Recorded on September 4, 2025.
