Fund Commentary
Government bonds have been volatile over the month. Amid a surge in demand for their perceived relative safety, investors have had to weigh up the positive influence of central bank easing against an expected surge in borrowing from unprecedented levels of fiscal stimulus. At the same time, as highly liquid assets, government bonds have also come under some selling pressure as investors seek to meet redemption requests. By month end, yields across many markets were not far from record lows. The yield of the US 10-year initially fell to an all-time low of 0.34%, before climbing back to 1.26%, and then falling back to end the month at 0.67%. Gilts were similarly volatile. Unsurprisingly, this difficult environment for companies has led the rating agencies to revise their predictions of default rates higher. The market has also repriced the risk of default with large moves, comparable to the global financial crisis in 2008, observed in credit spreads.
