Yields surge, oil climbs: is a market reality check coming?

from Moving Markets · host Julius Baer

Global markets are kicking off the week on the back foot as government bond yields surge to multi-year highs, reigniting concerns about stagflation. Oil prices climbed another 2% overnight, with no quick resolution in sight for the ongoing Middle East tensions. In today’s episode, we’re joined by Mensur Pocinci, Head of Technical Analysis, who shares his outlook on whether US 10-year Treasury yields could reach the 5% mark. He also explains why the rally in semiconductor stocks may be due for a pause – and why that might actually be a good thing.(00:00) - Introduction: Bernadette Anderko, Product & Investment Content (01:01) - Markets wrap-up: Roman Canziani, Head of Product & Investment Content (06:08) - Technical Analysis update: Mensur Pocinci, Head of Technical Analysis (10:59) - Closing remarks: Bernadette Anderko, Product & Investment Content Would you like to support this show?
