Mizuho's Multi-Asset Strategy Daily reviews consolidating global rates ahead of the Jackson Hole symposium. The author recommends fading aggressive front-end rate hike pricing in Europe and the UK given muted medium-term inflation passthrough and cautious central bank stances.
Key Takeaways
- 1.US rates consolidated with curve flattening (5s30s below 80bp) driven by firmer US data, while markets await Jackson Hole where new Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's speech could disappoint those seeking explicit near-term policy signals.
- 2.European government bond yields remain rangebound (Bunds 3.20–3.30%) with limited appetite for ECB tightening guidance beyond September, offering attractive risk-reward to fade front-end rate hike pricing.
- 3.Gilts continue to trade as a beta to USTs and oil; the 4% Ofgem price cap hike was anticipated and muted by softening labor market conditions.
