Rising Yields Will Not Derail the Economy

Download Oliver Brennan's Macro Strategy, "Rising Yields will not Derail the Economy"

  • Anything is a risk when equities are rich; but higher yields, steeper curves and rising earnings are natural in a recovery
  • 10y yields are also anchored by short-end: yields >1.5% imply tight Fed policy
  • Global demand for US bonds is strong: EM FX reserves are rising
