In today’s episode, we go through how in these modern times, a tweet can impact bond market pricing. Plus, Robbie sits down with Xactus’ Shelley Leonard and Experian’s Michele Bodda for a discussion on shifts in credit scoring, opportunities to modernize data and workflows, misconceptions that slow progress, and how lenders should approach credit strategy in 2026. And we close by looking at why upcoming surveys could dictate mortgage rates.
