Fantastic video once again Ryan ! Thank you very much
Would you mind tackling the issue around the convexity bias between interest rate futures and interest rate forwards ? I.E why do futures and forwards don't experience the same convexity changes ?

[@RyanOConnellCFA]

Much appreciated! That is a good idea for a future video! I can look into that one down the road. I'll warn you, I've got a bit of a large backlog right now though
