Why USD Fixed Income may look increasingly attractive to European investors
Wednesday 15 July 2020
Investment Talks, Fixed income
US fixed income can be a valuable source of diversification for European investors, but in the past the cost of hedging of the US Dollar exposure was high, neutralizing this benefit. The situation has changed, and the cost of hedging for Euro-based investors is much lower than in the recent past. Furthermore, we expect this cost will remain low.
As a result, we believe the US market can potentially be a compelling investment opportunity for Euro-based investors to complement their domestic fixed income allocation with US bonds.

US election: no winner yet, markets moving from a Blue Wave to a possible Trump trade
US election outcome: At the time of writing, the result remains unclear and prudence is needed as the race is close Biden 238 - Trump 213 (270 to win). We expect an 85% likelihood of knowing the winner within ten days. The winner of the election is likely to be determined sometimes during the next few days as three battleground states, Michigan, Pennsylvania (6 November: deadline for mail-in ballots to be received in Pennsylvania) and Wisconsin, complete the long process of counting large numbers of ballots that were sent by mail as a result of Covid-19.
