Interest rates continue to dominate our recent research. And rightfully so. Big swings in interest rates have ramifications for the domestic and global economy.
Whether it is falling bond yields / interest rates in China (as we highlighted last week) or rising bond yields / interest rates in the U.S. (as we highlighted this week), it is important for investors to follow the bond market.
Today we look at elevated German government bond yields (on a long-term “monthly” basis).
As you can see, German interest rates are trading at the top of a 44-year falling channel.
If this is a bull flag pattern, we may see a breakout above and out of this falling channel. A breakout would confirm a trend change and effect the economy and government bonds/debt.
In my humble opinion, it might be important what happens here. Stay tuned!
