UBS: Continues to be Bullish on 10-Year US Treasury Bonds
On June 3rd, a rate strategist at UBS stated in a recent report that due to lingering risks to economic growth, the bank remains bullish on the 10-year US Treasury bond. "We think the market has underestimated the risk of economic slowdown, and the relatively moderate US CPI data in May and June will also be beneficial to the performance of the 10-year Treasury bond." The strategists pointed out that although household inflation expectations have increased, they have not yet been translated into significant wage pressure.
Furthermore, they also mentioned that if the US Senate adjusts the "Build Back Better Act" proposed by the House of Representatives to further cut spending, it could help relieve concerns about the expanding fiscal deficit. However, UBS also believes that in the coming months, it may be difficult for the 10-year Treasury yield to fall below 4%.
