Treasury yields stand near record lows, reflecting investors’ thirst for U.S. government bonds in the wake of a stock decline that has seen the S&P 500 give up more than 20% from its record high. The Japanese yen and Swiss franc have both touched multi-year highs against the dollar in recent days, while gold prices hit a seven-year peak earlier this month.
Meanwhile, liquidity in the $17 trillion Treasuries market has deteriorated to its worst levels since the financial crisis, traders said. Some market participants have in recent days complained of being unable to get a satisfactory market price, a result of too many buyers and not enough sellers. At the same time, a sustained rise in the Japanese currency could leave it near levels that could prompt the Bank of Japan to curb its strength, some analysts believe. A strong currency tends to make a country’s exports less competitive abroad, an outcome Japan’s struggling economy can ill afford.
