Pro Macro: In Focus – The Setup Is Still Underway

Published on: March 21st, 2022

Raoul revisits the big setup in bonds and when he might add to the trade to take a much bigger bet. He also gives us context on the 1973 oil crisis and how similar it is to today…

    Raoul Thanks, is there a high point on the 10 yr and 30 yr yield where you’d say yields aren’t coming down any time soon and concede that it will take much longer than you previously thought for yields to come down? After Powel’s comments today, I am looking at a 10 year yield of 2.3%, I see you mentioned 2.35% in your Update.

      It could take longer, hence the note saying I'd like to see a further set up in the trade. Dollar Yen has yet to make its big break, which lies further up at 130

      Hi Raoul forgot to add this but you always said the Yen would weaken. I am surprised you have not brought it up in any of your comments.

    Raoul- how do you think about the impact of QE/ QT (Central bank activity) now versus the 70's example? Is there a chance that the chart of truth is "polluted" by this activity and that IF they reverse to QT the chart of truth may look very different (shape and level) ?

      Yields tend to fall on QT or ending QE so not so sure

    just a suggestion for Raoul's charts (I think someone suggested this previously) - please make the font size of the axes larger, and the chart lines perhaps a bit thicker. The x-axis and y-xis font sizes are way too small and one has to zoom the page view to 150-200% to see it clearly. Thanks!

    (the chart at the bottom of page 4 is 1973 PMI rather than 1973 equities)

    You mention that when yields top, you'd look into buying some exponential age trades. Can you help me understand logic of why these will outperform in a recessionary environment? Is it under the assumption the fed will start to expand BS again?
