Navigating the volatility in global bond markets
Jonathan Fine, George Cole, Alison Nathan, Jonny Fine
Following a global surge in bond yields driven by stronger-than-expected US growth and revised Federal Reserve policy expectations, investors are now pricing in heightened inflation risks and significant fiscal issuance from the incoming administration. Despite this volatility, corporate credit markets remain robust as earnings outpace borrowing costs, while central banks focus on preventing wage-driven second-round inflationary effects. Goldman Sachs' Jonny Fine projects a favorable bond outlook for 2025 based on underlying inflation moderation and the belief that current neutral rate concerns are overstated.

Why Treasury auctions — and rising deficits — are becoming a focal point for markets and investors
Jonny Fine, Alec Phillips, Alison Nathan
This analysis examines U.S. Treasury auction mechanics and market dynamics where rising issuance volumes have combined with Federal Reserve expectations to drive a "higher for longer" interest rate environment. While political discourse has largely sidelined the deficit despite projected long-term debt growth, record corporate refinancing and resilient consumer spending currently offset immediate concerns about fiscal sustainability. Ultimately, Goldman Sachs analysts anticipate intermittent market volatility from specific auction tails rather than a systemic correction, warning that a future recession remains the primary catalyst for deteriorating economic conditions.
