He said he did not feel comfortable putting all his money into equities at the present time and owning 10-year Treasury notes gave him some security. As money moves out of risky assets, Treasurys could benefit, he argued. Equity markets were ‘relatively expensive’, he said, although Europe and emerging markets represented better value.”
