What Goes Up

Hong Kong. Yield Curve. Oh My.

Chaos in Hong Kong. A cross-asset market shock in Argentina. And that dreaded yield-curve inversion—a fleeting drop in 10-year U.S yields below 2-year rates—goes viral by creating panic-selling in the stock market. It was quite a week. JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. Global Markets Strategist Gabriela Santos joins this week's podcast to make sense of it all. Also joining hosts Sarah Ponczek and Mike Regan is Bloomberg cross-asset reporter Luke Kawa, who gives his take on the market volatility of August.Mentioned in this podcast:<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-08-14/countdown-to-catastrophe-the-yield-curve-and-stock-bull-markets">Countdown to Catastrophe?
