It’s a good time to buy inflation-protected Treasury debt after yields on the benchmark exceeded 2%, according to strategists at Wells Fargo & Co.
The US bank’s Angelo Manolatos and Mike Schumacher recommend buying 10-year TIPS at a real yield of 2%, targeting 1.7% over the next two to three months with a stop at 2.15%, they wrote in a Monday note. Yields on these securities pushed above 2% for the first time since 2009 on Monday.
This is “our top choice for going long duration,” they wrote. “The Federal Reserve is either done hiking or will do only another 25bps, in our view.” Wells Fargo found that 10-year real yields dropped by an average of 26 basis points in the three months following the final hike of the Fed’s three most-recent cycles — in 2000, 2006, and 2018 — and that yields fell 39 bps when looking at a six-month period.
Potential catalysts for Treasury gains through the end of August include revisions to payrolls data set to be released this week, a 30-year TIPS auction on Thursday, and Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s comments at Jackson Hole, the analysts said. “Our economists see a risk that Powell emphasizes the need to reduce nominal rates as inflation recedes,” they added. “This emphasis likely would lead watchers to conclude that policy is near a dovish turn.”

Goldman Sachs sees room for investors to grow more bullish on US stocksThe sharp increase in investor equity allocations to U.S. stocks since the start of the year still has room to expand before breaching historical norms, suggesting that there may be more fuel left for the bull market, Goldman Sachs said. The net leverage exposure to equities by hedge funds remains below the average over the last 5 years, while cash allocations held by mutual funds remains 50 basis points above their lows from December 2021, representing a potential $49 billion of equity demand, GS strategists wrote in a note on Monday. Goldman Sachs maintained its year-end price target of 4,500 for the S&P 500 and its 12-month price target of 4,700.
