Treasury bills continue to soar as fed swaps price in peak policy rate of 5.5% in December

Our Analysis

  • We expect short-term treasury yields to start taking allocation from other assets as savers get rewarded by central banks during this hawkish period.
  • However, the debasement rate far exceeds the return adjusted for inflation.
  • This could be bearish for crypto as treasury bills (U.S. 06 Month Yield) are over 5%, the highest level since 2007.
