Are rising long-term interest rates really bad news for the U.S. economy?

In this episode of *Through the Noise*, Cam Harvey and Robert Olinger examine the debate surrounding Federal Reserve interest rate policy and challenge the conventional narrative about rising Treasury yields.
Harvey explains why the Federal Reserve has much more influence over short-term interest rates than long-term rates—and why the market’s focus on a potential 25-basis-point move may distract from the bigger economic story.
The discussion explores how long-term interest rates affect corporate investment decisions, why inflation expectations may not explain the recent rise in yields, and what credit spreads and massive financing for AI data centers reveal about capital markets.
Harvey offers an alternative interpretation: higher real yields may reflect investor expectations for stronger real economic growth. With companies making major investments in artificial intelligence infrastructure and data centers, rising long-term rates could be signaling accelerating productivity and economic growth rather than economic weakness.
Instead of viewing higher long-term interest rates strictly as bad news, Harvey argues that markets may be pricing in robust growth opportunities as the economic impact of AI innovation begins to emerge.
