WHAT COULD POSSIBLY MARK A TOP IN BONDS MORE THAN NEGATIVE RATES?

Great read about the upcoming BONDPOCALYPSE.

Get ready for inflation. Been talking about this all year last year.

Game. Over.

    Do you think divergent monetary policy might dampen the selling? Since the rest of the world is basically still easing in one form or another, wont some yield seekers flock to treasuries as rates rise?

    Or is it your view that this trade is just too crowded with longs for that to have a meaningful impact?

    I dont disagree, but curious to hear opinions on this:

    What if the Inflation that we are seeing pop up isnt the traditional ‘Demand-Pull” inflation, but rather the more nefariois “Cost-Push”? Not sure Cost-Push would benefit stocks as clearly……only companies with pricing power would survive that in theory. Interested in thoughts.

    Do you really believe we’ll get some inflation this year?

      If so – what do you believe that does to the dollar…. textbooks say lower

      If we get inflation & lower dollar – that’s unequivocally bullish for gold prices right, but then there’s the FED? 3 hikes this year could really only happen with some decent inflation.

      I’m rambling. What r your thoughts on DXY GLD and Fed hikes?
