Andy Constan: Bond term premium at post-pandemic high, yields may need to rise
Bond term premium at post-pandemic high

Andy Constan, founder and strategist at Damped Spring Macro, points out that bond term premium measures—representing expected excess return over cash—are currently at post-pandemic highs and closely match their long-term levels from before and after quantitative easing (QE).

To achieve a more reasonable expected Sharpe ratio for holding bonds over cash in a market without active QE, Constan suggests that bond yields, specifically in 10-year maturities, would need to rise by 44 basis points.

Constan has previously commented on market reactions to corporate actions. He noted that ORCL shares dropped 58 percent after the company shifted its business strategy to building compute capacity. In a separate observation, Constan reported that the ONDS CEO discussed him directly, calling the executive incompetent.
