What if bond yields halve?
November 17, 2023 Leave a comment
I think U.S. 2 year bond yields will fall.
I also think that the Australian 2 year bond yields decline.
I think they respectively test (+/- 0.10%) these next levels;
Aussie 2’s
3.5%, 2.85% & 2.30%
U.S. 2’s
4.10%, 3.35% & 2.75%
The trick will be the timeframe, but I’m going to put it somewhere between the next 7 – 15 months.
If this eventuates, the recent decline in yields such as the U.S. 2’s only falling from 5.26% to their current 4.83%. is hardly newsworthy.
Moreover, I’m pondering all of the affects that such a move would have on other assets and businesses.
This note is reprising my October 30, 2023 comments doubting the calls for higher yields, lasting for longer.
