“The short end of the curve as well, the monthlong bonds, the two-year bonds, the, you know, three year bonds, they're all going to go up on this as well.”
Thesis at the time
BearishThe host also expects short-end Treasury yields (2-3 year bonds) to rise alongside long-term yields due to renewed inflation concerns from the Canada trade dispute, implying downward pressure on short-duration bond prices.
Key arguments
- Short-end bonds like the 2-year and 3-year are expected to see yields rise similarly to the long end.
