Where's the Risk?!
Manage episode 407379960 series 3561267
Remember that ad campiagn in the 1980's, "Where's the Beef?!"... In this episode, Ivan exclaims, "Where's the Risk?!", in reference to the seemingly non-existent level of risk in the lower-end spectrum of investment grade bonds. Referencing data shared in AWAIM's latest research highlight, Ivan shares how the OAS-to-Yield Ratio may reveal another perspective on the bond market's current risk assessment.
There seems to be no shortage of risky things at play in the macro economy: the Trump trial, a threatening U.S. government shutdown, fierce political divisiveness, and the looming refinance risk for issuers from lower cost maturing bonds. But, for some reason, market participants are unphased... for now.
