The Authority On Bonds Is Reason Why Treasuries Did Not Crumble As Equities Popped

Tyler Durden's picture




From The Fourth Branch Of Government's Secular Outlook, Interest Rate Strategies:

With Treasury yields near the top of our expected range, PIMCO plans to overweight duration and take exposure to the 5-to 10-year portion of the yield curve. However, consistent with our Secular Outlook, we plan to also retain an emphasis on the short end of the curves in the U.S., Europe and the U.K. as central banks are likely to tighten more slowly than markets expect.

Sure, that 10 year at 3.6% is such a bargain. So let me get this straight, equity markets are planning for near hyper-inflation yet Bill Gross is happy to lock in current inflation levels. Presumably someone is wrong: here is our guess who.

Do ya think that there could have been a wink and a nod from the Fed that Pimco would be covered in case the bonds exploded?

Maybe.  Maybe not?  Wink! Wink!

OK maybe no nod.

More like a written agreement signed with the blood of the American taxpayer (they keep several ink-wells of this at the NY Fed...)

The German magazine Spiegel reports that "Pimco fears that the bond bubble bursts. (...) [not PIMCO-related] If the US credit rating gets downgraded, investors might be forced to sell their bonds. (my translation)

Do the PIMCO guys live in different worlds or has the reporter problems quoting them correctly??

Pimco has their position on now.  Note last week Cresenzi was out trash talking the long end on Bloomberg every other day.   Only Pimco can talk their book in Treasuries and make a difference.
