Rates and bikes. Wholly unable to deal with Thibaut Pinot’s retirement. “Gilt guru” and “ethereal bond vigilante” by day, elite level idiot with Bengali Dad energy at all other times. Baked goods and fried chicken enthusiast.

Everyone has their own way of looking at it. That’s generally the framework that I work with. But many will just look at “rates to explain rates“ so you’re looking more at RV dislocation.

My real issue with the Bank is that it allowed front end rate expectations to become completely deanchored - high level of GBP gamma relative to other markets was a reflection of deterioration in policy credibility

Changes in CAPB are the only clean measure of changing fiscal stance. Even more brutally, cash is king so how much money you are raising a from the market in any given year matters within a term premium framework where the varying factor is not neutral rate expectations.

Default for a DM is different to default for a corporate. Higher inflation, institutional changes or changing policy targets all are effectively forms of default. We just don’t call them.

Sympathetic to the argument but needs to recognise that neutral rates are different across economies and that drives some of the difference in yields. Successive governments have taken windfall and use them to fund tax cuts or current spending rather than do anything responsible…..

Less than a week left to apply for this, the most exciting job in UK fiscal policy available right now.

The good old days when shops didn't have doors, windows had flags mounted in them, the local bakers sold baguettes and we used decimal currency?
