Quarterly Outlook
Fixed Income Outlook: Bonds Hit Reset. A New Equilibrium Emerges

Summary: Broader markets continue to price in a more aggressive Fed but dollar still ended the week nearly unchanged despite a significant plunge in yields. This could partly be a result of haven demand as risks of Mideast conflict escalating are on watch, but also signals the less optimistic ex-US growth outlook. Macro and positioning data continues to point towards more GBP upside, and inflation and jobs data will be on watch.
