US Bonds Nearing Their All-time High
Interest-Rates / US Bonds Apr 25, 2016 - 06:23 PM GMTUSB futures are lingering at their lows from Friday. The Cycles Model suggests a Trading cycle low may be made at any time in the next 72 hours. What may follow is a ramp to the average target of the Bullish Flag formation.
Bloomberg writes, “Bond investors are taking bigger risks than ever before.
Yields on $7.8 trillion of government bonds have been driven below zero by worries over global growth, meaning money managers looking for income are pouring into debt with maturities of as long as 100 years. Central banks’ policy is exacerbating matters, as the unprecedented debt purchases to spur their economies have soaked up supply and left would-be buyers with few options.”
A case in point is Unilever’s 0% Coupon bond issue. ZeroHedge writes, “On Friday we wrote our latest take on how the ECB's CSPP, or corporate bond buying program, in which we explained how this ECB's latest market manipulating adventure is about to crush the fundamentals of the European (and soon, courtesy of the ECB's "SPV" loophole, global) bond market. We showed how the ECB, in its latest attempt to become an even more market-moving hedge fund, is set to buy billions in corporate bonds and not just European but also international, as long as they have a European-domiciled (read Ireland or Netherland) SPV holdco.”
