Trade Ideas
Ben 10:35
US 2-year yields to rise.
The US 2-year Treasury yield is too low given the inflationary impact of the energy shock. The natural rate is around 4% versus the current 3.85%, meaning bonds are overpriced and yields should rise as the market reprices.
SHY HIGH
Ben 10:59
UK front end yields to rise.
The UK front end is overpriced because the market is overpricing Bank of England rate hikes. The BOE will not be able to raise rates as much as expected, so front-end gilt yields will rise as the mispricing corrects.
UK 2-Year Gilt HIGH
Ella 30:54
EM local debt attractive on real yields.
Emerging market local debt is attractive, particularly commodity exporters with positive real yields and steep yield curves. The Philippines is an example offering ~7.6%, but the broader theme is favorable.
EM Local Debt MED
Ella 31:32
Gold bullish on higher inflation.
Gold is attractive for the medium term as the inflation regime moves toward 3-4%. We have been accumulating gold around $4500/oz. Despite short-term headwinds from rising yields, the medium-term outlook is bullish.
GLD MED
Neil 34:04
ARM AI chipset demand strong.
ARM's new AI chipset is seeing 2x the demand previously expected, and AI data center growth will offset smartphone weakness. The strong AI demand trend supports the stock.
ARM LOW

Maersk benefits from freight rate rise.
Maersk is well-positioned to benefit from higher freight rates driven by the Middle East situation. Its strong balance sheet and liquidity ($26 billion) give it an advantage over peers, and freight rate gains outweigh higher fuel costs for now.
MAERSK MED
