Rates Spike Around The Globe
Interest rates are on the rise, and it’s not just in the US and Europe. The Japanese 10-year yield hit its highest level in over five years last week. Like Germany, Japan is now back in positive territory after a half-decade of offering negative yields. All of this action is supportive of the new highs we’re seeing from the US 10-year yield. With rates on the rise around the world and the question turning into “how high” – as opposed to “if” – the FED will hike, it’s time to look for opportunities in the areas of the market that benefit the most from a rising rate environment.
