Sovereign debt supply and demand dynamics shape markets, Gregory Daco discusses
Sovereign debt shifts affect markets

Gregory Daco highlights a discussion among Jim Poterba, Brian Sack, and Carmen Reinhart on the implications of sovereign debt for financial markets and fiscal space at NABE2026.

The conversation, moderated by Cathleen Koch, centered on the increasing visibility of debt supply in pricing and the importance of shifts in demand, particularly as purchases shift toward more price-sensitive buyers and away from central banks.

Daco previously discussed global economic trends and the outlook for capital in a Chief Economists Outlook interview. He also projected a 5.2% rise in 2026 holiday season sales, the fastest growth since 2021, according to an EY forecast. These recent insights follow his commentary on sovereign debt and fiscal conditions at NABE2026.
