What's with all the negativity? Interest rates or bond yields have gone negative. Oil prices have gone negative. Where are the optimists among us? 

In this episode we have a look at how bond yields can go negative and what the implications these anomalies have on some specific sectors and the overall economy. There is even a mention of a mortgage with a negative interest rate!

We also dive into the recent negative spike in Oil prices and wonder at how can the price of something that you buy to consume turn negative?
