The Real Side with Joe Messina is back again with David Fischer as they discuss the markets and more on how our relationship with Russia is affecting the economy. Russia sold 47.4 billion dollars worth of U.S. Treasuries and that is what caused the 10-year yield to go above 3%, according to the United States Treasury. The treasury was setting the record straight declining the fact that tariffs had something to do with it. Russia has also been making deals with Iran for 50 billion dollars in the oil and gas industry.
