Since the turn of the year the price of LQD, the investment grade corporate credit ETF, has declined nearly 10 points (-7.3%) and since early August is down 13 points (-10%).

Bond yields often broadcast a pulse on global economic and geopolitical events long before the equities markets! Most market observers are already keeping 10yr Tsy yields on their radar, and of course the 3mth Bills/10yr Tsy spread as the key indicator of curve 'steepness' or 'inversion'. But especially as the Fed starts unloading bonds from its balance sheet,...

They are at their highest relative yield vs stocks in decades @ 2.71% and sitting on huge support. Stocks are still a short on any rally

A Catch-22 is a problem for which the only solution is denied by a circumstance inherent in the problem or by a rule. This is exactly the problem the Federal Reserve faces. Historic inflation continues to accelerate, becoming embedded into the market's expectations and risking a spiral effect In order to stop rapid inflation, and achieve its mandate of price...

VIX has been spiking with TLT/LQD, but the last few times just seemed to help turn it around. Looks similar to the new year, in orange. Volatility has been exploding, per usual. Every 2 years since 2008, Vix has made a new support 3pts higher, shown in solid white. I just read an analyst saying 18 is likely the bottom for some time. TLT/LQD has also been on a...

With credit conditions starting to deteriorate currently,(mostly in Europe) high yielding debt will definitely be most negatively affected, especially after the first rate hikes from the Fed.

HYG / LQD weekly chart shows a breakout above the March 2020 former broken support which was tested as resistance in March 2021 and could even be called a cup and handle. High Yield is commanded from this bonds because they are considered higher risk. So with all the geopolitical and rising rates concerns, this seems contrary and signals that we may be in a...

The idea is that some corporate bonds will get hurt next days/weeks. Increasing default rate as Free Cash Flow from operations is not growing enough to cover debt service.

Idea for Credit: - Stocks had a bit of a reprieve as China's collapsing property firms were halted for 2 weeks, and China's markets had gone on holiday for Golden week. - Stock market had an unwinding of hedges last week, but are things really 'Back to Normal'? - The bond market does not think so, and seems to be presaging more drawdown to come. - EM High Yield...

Have to just wait and see. My ide is that we are in for a market top in late march 2022 and a very big bust there after.

corporate debt etf, mbb mortgage backed securities, and tlt treasuries all have similar price action. could the fear of inflation be hitting the debt markets and be the cause of future stocks sells offs as risk taking fades in both?
