Notable Quotes 2
When the ECB introduced negative interest rates in 2014 many European and Asian investors started buying US rates and also the next-door neighbor to US rates namely US IG.
With higher US Treasury yields, rising hedging costs, a falling dollar, and signs that the ECB will end QE in September foreign demand for US credit is slowing, see chart below. Expect this to continue going forward.
