“It’s not only Treasury yields that are falling; nominal interest rates are in free-fall around the world:  German bunds yield just 1.4 percent and French government bond yields fell to 1.65 percent — the lowest level since 1746!  Two of Europe’s most troubled PIIGS, Spain and Italy, also have witnessed record low bond yields of 2.6 percent and 2.76 percent, respectively.   Yield spreads on emerging market Tdebt and junk bonds compared with Treasuries are likewise sinking toward new lows.  his compression in nominal yields around the global has important implications for investors and could prove very bullish for certain asset classes. Case in point: Gold.”
