A speech this week by Mario Draghi, the president of the European Central Bank, signaled at best a very small change in the direction of monetary policy. But a confluence of upbeat utterances by Mr. Draghi and other top central bankers, along with growing optimism about the long-suffering eurozone, added up to an aha moment for financial markets. Investors and traders seemed to suddenly realize that the era of ultracheap money is coming to an end. The revelation led to a wholesale reassessment of the relative prices of stocks and bonds. Markets, which had been sleepy most of the year, awoke with a start. Yields on government bonds in Britain, Germany and the United States have all moved higher. Mr. Draghi set off the excitement, perhaps unintentionally, with a speech Tuesday morning in Sintra, Portugal, that gave an unusually cheerful view of the eurozone. He ticked off a series of positive indicators, including 16 quarters of growth, with almost all countries benefiting, and 6.4 million new jobs. Only a few years ago, some economists were predicting the euro’s demise. The comment that investors picked up on, however, was convoluted and open to interpretation. “As the economy continues to recover, ” Mr. Draghi said, “a constant policy stance will become more accommodative, and the central bank can accompany the recovery by adjusting the parameters of its policy instruments — not in order to tighten the policy stance, but to keep it broadly unchanged.” Some analysts interpreted the cryptic sentence to mean that the European Central Bank will dial back its stimulus as the economy improves. That is not exactly news. Mr. Draghi said as much at a news conference this month. But markets are acutely sensitive to any sign that the central bank will begin reducing the size of its purchases of government and corporate bonds, a process known as tapering. Mr. Draghi’s remark was seen as a slight departure from his previous signals, and European Central Bank officials were quick to try to temper market reaction. “Personally, ” Vítor Constâncio, the central bank’s vice president, said in an interview with CNBC on Wednesday, “I don’t see anything in the speech that would be different from, say, the previous two main interventions about monetary policy done by the president.” Still, bond markets took notice. Yields for 10-year bonds in Britain and Germany, which move inversely to price, have risen in the past week, indicating expectations that interest rates and inflation will rise. The yield on the 10-year German government bond, the benchmark debt for the eurozone, has increased to 0.457 percent, from 0.253 percent a week ago. Britain’s 10-year bond yield has also risen, to 1.246 percent, from 1.031 percent, while yields on 10-year Treasury bonds were up, as well. In the United States on Friday morning, the Dow Jones industrial average and the S.&P. 500 were both slightly higher after losses the previous day. Earlier, Asian stocks fell, while shares in Europe were little changed. “It is the opening for the E.C.B. to move toward tapering, ” said Carsten Brzeski, chief economist for Germany and Austria at ING Bank in Frankfurt.</p>]]></content:encoded> <category><![CDATA[Rate]]></category> <link>http://sfbondclub.org/bank-bonds-rates</link> <guid isPermaLink="true">http://sfbondclub.org/bank-bonds-rates</guid> <pubDate>Wed, 24 Mar 2021 15:34:00 +0000</pubDate> </item> <item> <title>treasury bonds rates today</title> <description>If you think the financial panic over Brexit is over — because stocks have bounced back somewhat from their initial sell off — think again.

As scared investors continue to seek shelter in boring government bonds, fixed income prices have soared while yields on 10-year Treasury securities plummeted to as low as 1.34%, marking the lowest levels ever seen in U.S. history. In early morning trading Wednesday, yields bounced slightly to 1.37%. But that's a far cry from the 5% yields on 10-year Treasuries before the global financial crisis. Overseas, the situation has gotten even worse: 10-year German and Japanese bonds have sunk further into negative yield territory, which means investors are so concerned about the economy that they're willing to pay officials for the right to park their money with the government. Aren't record low rates a good thing? Normally, investors crave low interest rates because cheap borrowing costs encourage spending and capital investments, which fuel economic activity and growth. Low rates also offer relief for debt-laden governments and consumers, who can now refinance existing loans at better terms. But ultra-low interest rates can also be a sign that investors are so worried about stagnation or recession that their primary focus is on the safe return of their capital—that is, making sure they can simply get it back—not earning big returns on their capital. Related The uncertainty caused by Britain's unprecedented move to leave the European Union has fueled fear over what's to come for the global economy. And in times of fear, investors generally flock to bonds, which drives up their prices and drives down their yields. (Market interest rates move in the opposite direction of bond prices.) Less than two weeks after the vote, economists have already been ratcheting down their expectations for growth overseas. IHS Global Insight, for instance, now believes the gross domestic product among countries in the Eurozone will grow just 1.4% this year and 0.9% next year. Before Brexit, the economic research firm had been forecasting Euroepean economic growth of 1.7% this year and 1.8% in 2017. How scared should you be? It's far too soon to tell if the U.S. is also headed for negative rates. But one thing is clear: The so-called "yield curve" is flattening out. And that normally spells trouble for the economy. The yield curve refers to the spectrum of rates paid by Treasuries of various maturities. Normally, longer-dated Treasuries — such as 10- or 30-year bonds that require investors to tie up their money for extended periods of time — pay substantially more than short-term debt, which poses less risk. Yet when fear over the economy bubbles over, investors tend to flock into long-term bonds, driving down long-term yields. And when that happens, the gap between what short- and long-term bonds are paying decreases and the yield curve "flattens." Ed Yardeni, president and chief investment officer at Yardeni Research, points out that the spread between yields on 10-year and two-year Treasuries is the flattest it has been since November 14, 2007. Indeed, the spread between 10-year and two-year yields is down to just 0.8 percentage points. A year earlier, it was roughly double that. Why is this important? Because Nov. 14, 2007 was just two weeks before the start of the 2007-2009 recession that coincided with the global financial crisis. If the yield curve actually inverts — meaning 10-year Treasuries start paying less than two-year Treasuries — it's virtually certain that the economy is in or headed for recession. If the economy is so scary, why are stocks doing reasonably well? That's a good question. IHS Global Insight economist Patrick Newport points out that "the seemingly contradictory demand for stocks given the rally in bonds is likely driven by the perception that the Federal Reserve will further delay raising rates in the wake of the Brexit vote, making stocks more attractive in terms of returns." Income-oriented investors, who've been frustrated by the paltry yields being paid by bonds, may also be driving this trend. Back in the early 1980s 10-year Treasuries were yielding 10 percentage points more than the dividend yield on blue chip U.S. stocks, notes Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at BMO Private Bank. "Nowadays that gap has disappeared and then some, " he said. Indeed, today, the dividend yield on the S&P 500—what you get for holding the stocks above and beyond stock price appreciation—is more than half a percentage point higher than what 10-year Treasuries are paying. This trend could persist and stocks could keep rising for months on the strength of income investors. The problem is, if the bond market is right and the economy is this weak, eventually the stock market will get the message too.</p>]]></content:encoded> <category><![CDATA[Rate]]></category> <link>http://sfbondclub.org/treasury-bonds-rates-today</link> <guid isPermaLink="true">http://sfbondclub.org/treasury-bonds-rates-today</guid> <pubDate>Mon, 22 Feb 2021 16:29:00 +0000</pubDate> </item> <item> <title>Federal bonds rates</title> <description>The Federal Open Market Committee's statement containing key language that points to starting rolling back the Fed's balance sheet in September.

Equities, on the other hand, usually rally when optimistic investors are in a mood to embrace risk.
