The spread between the 2 year and 10 year US treasuries have widened with markets saying that a Powell recession is here. We speak to Tony Nash, CEO of Complete Intelligence as to whether he agrees. We also ask him if the recent aggressive job cuts by the tech and now finance sector will be part of the Federal Reserve's decision making process at the next FOMC meeting.
