Notable Quotes 2
I guess he'd like to have a bit more in depth call with you around the flows as Europe and Japan pull back from QE and what that means to assets in the US.
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.
