Strategic Bond Update
WEBCAST: Strategic Bond Quarterly update
43 minute watch
Key takeaways:
- Bond yields test patience and resolve as we approach terminal rates culminating in classic false breakouts in UK & Australian 10 year yields
- The growth environment remains supportive for bonds and no impediment to yields falling
- Core inflation was the proximate cause for this bond bear and the outlook on the inflation front is improving rapidly
- The UK remains the one outlier but it is priced as such and there may be more benign explanations than a persistent inflation problem
- Generically, credit spreads look tight relative to the macro environment . Pockets of opportunity can be found in short dated investment grade yield and AAA agency mortgage securities in the US
