The one where Bruce and Warren explain why interest rates matter when you are investing
High rates are believed to be good for savers, except they are a sign of high inflation which means that even if you think you are better off because your money in the bank is drawing a high return, the value of that money is losing value as it’s corroded by inflation. Markets like lower rates and as the cycle finaly turns, why does it matter?
