EGBS: Goldman: Spot Curve Steepening, Forward Flattening, Swap Spds Into Unknown
Mar-10 14:21
Goldman Sachs think “2s10s core EGBs curves will continue to steepen and forecast a move around 35bp above the forwards this year”.
- At the same time, they suggest that “higher German issuance will not only manifest as higher term premium, but upside growth risks in coming years will likely affect market perceptions of terminal rates”.
