Global bond yields are currently tracking oil prices with high correlation due to the ongoing war, but structural bearishness on duration remains the bank's core view.
Key Takeaways
- 1.Bond yields are currently being driven primarily by oil prices, showing a very tight correlation since the start of the war.
- 2.The recent rally in bonds is consistent with the decline in energy prices, suggesting the rates market is behaving logically relative to oil.
- 3.Post-war structural drivers including Fed pricing, inflation risks, and tech capex will likely replace oil as the primary yield catalysts.
