Rising bond yields can pressure equities, Jurrien Timmer notes
Fed model ties equities to yields

Jurrien Timmer discusses the relationship between stocks and bonds as described by the Fed Model. According to Timmer, when stocks and bonds are correlated and offer similar yields, changes in bond yields are likely to impact equity prices as well. He points out that if yields rise to 5 percent, equities may need to derate accordingly, highlighting the transmission mechanism between interest rates and equity valuations.

Timmer recently highlighted that strong earnings, higher margins, and low credit spreads have provided support for equities even as oil prices remain elevated, according to his earlier observations. He has also noted improving momentum and Sharpe Ratio for Bitcoin versus gold, as capital shifted from gold ETPs to Bitcoin following a major price recovery. The latest comments extend his analysis of the interplay between asset classes and market drivers.
