Benchmark bond yields are rising as rate-setters around the world scale back asset purchases. That will reduce the appeal of corporate debt, but a correction in credit markets is nothing to fear, writes Unmack1
Yields on benchmark government bonds across developed markets have risen in 2022 because of expectations that central banks will dial back emergency stimulus.
U.S. 10-year Treasury bond yields were at 1.73% on Jan. 13, up 22 basis points from the end of 2021. The yield on comparable German government bonds has risen 10 basis points over the same period, to minus 0.08%. The rise in yields was triggered by the publication of minutes from the U.S. Federal Reserve’s December policy meeting, at which officials discussed the possibility of reducing the amount of bonds held on the central bank’s balance sheet.Dollar banknotes are seen in this picture illustration taken June 13, 2017.
