Government bond yields in most major economies worldwide have been flirting with all-time lows in the last few days, indicating that investors are wary of an impending recession.
yield has fallen back below 2%, trading at 1.9532% on Thursday. This despite a brief break higher on the back of a trade truce agreed between the U.S. and China.
Most analysts are also now pricing in two rate cuts from the U.S. Federal Reserve this year. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell hasChief among the Fed's concerns are slowing global growth, inflation that persistently falls short of the Fed's 2% target, and the ramifications of tariffs the U.S. and its trading partners, particularly China, have levied on each other. Draghi also recently hinted at ECB easing if euro zone inflation did not pick up sufficiently.
Major central banks have taken a U-turn from previously hawkish policy on the back of slow growth, low inflation and political uncertainty, leading investors to steer clear of risky and volatile assets. The Fed, the Bank of England and the ECB all ruled out rate hikes earlier this year.. The euro zone economy has relied heavily on exports, but with its German engine room showing serious industrial weakness, Italy entering recession and a Brexit stalemate, all compounded by the U.S.
Market volatility peaked in May as the trade war between the world's two largest economies underwent various phases of escalation and tariff impositions, sparking multiple quickfire sell-offs of risk assets.
