Bonds, 1987 and a Black Monday question on The David Lin Report
Twelve interviews went up in seven days, and two guests reaching back to the crash of October 1987 are drawing the quickest crowds.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
‘Very Similar To 1987': Here's What Bonds Break Next | Mike McGlone
A day old, and already the fastest thing on the shelf: Mike McGlone of Bloomberg Intelligence, comparing the bond market to 1987 and walking through oil, Bitcoin and gold. Right behind it sits Adrian Day, also a day old, asking how close markets are to a repeat of Black Monday. Two guests, two separate conversations, one anniversary month that nobody on the channel seems able to stop thinking about.
The rest of David Lin's twelve uploads read like a single long argument about Treasury yields. Gareth Soloway warns that at 5% the "whole system collapses". Northwestern economist Ben Chabot, once of the Chicago Fed, explains why Silicon Valley Bank failed and whether a bond market could ever face a run. Josh Young of Bison Interests and David Hay talk diesel, depleted reserves and tankers through the Strait of Hormuz.
The most watched of the week, though, belongs to Lyn Alden, back on the channel to talk fiscal dominance, 6% yields, crypto and the AI boom. Her return is the comment section's real subject: many simply ask where she has been, and plenty can't resist the pairing of Lin with Lyn, a few suggesting the two should have a weekly show of their own.
All of it pushed daily views to roughly double the channel's usual pace, with more than 1.4 million over the seven days, while the subscriber count held steady at 334,000. Among the money and investing channels nearest its size, that was the fourth-biggest week for views; Stefano Narducci and The Caleb Hammer Show had far larger ones, and Natalie Barbu was very quiet.
