In this Monday Market Outsiders, Namaan and Jenny Rae break down why U.S. Treasury yields hitting 5% could shake up markets - from stocks to real estate - as investors chase risk-free returns.

They also analyze Moody’s downgrade of U.S. debt from AAA, driven by ballooning deficits and Washington’s failure to rein in $36 trillion in national debt. Instead of panic, the duo calls for fiscal reform - arguing that pro-growth policies and smart deregulation are key to boosting revenue and restoring balance.
