Treasury Yields Near 7-Year High

(New York)

Treasury yields stayed pinned for most of this year. For many months it seemed like they were stuck in the ~2.85% range. This raised some hopes that we might have reached the crest in this hiking and rate rise cycle. However, Treasury yields have jumped considerably higher lately, and are now sitting close to their seven-year high of 3.11% from May. Yields have been moving higher as the trouble in emerging markets and Italy has waned, making investors turn to more pro-risk investments.


FINSUM: Yields are going to move in line with macroeconomic movements, especially right now. If the trade war worsens, or starts to show signs of hurting EM economies, expect a big retreat in yields.

Value Stocks May Finally Catch Up

(New York)

Value stocks have been hurting for years. They have lagged growth stocks considerably over the last decade, and have been underperforming growth stocks for so long that even some ardent value fans say the shares might never rebound. However, an increasing group of analysts are saying that value is set to stage a big comeback versus growth. Some indicators show that a reversal of growth stocks is imminent, and P/E ratios are running so high that value looks likely to appreciate. Morgan Stanley analyst Michael Wilson thinks that the current rotating bear market will end with growth and small caps sinking.


FINSUM: We don’t see much of a catalyst for growth stocks sinking while value stocks rise. Further, if stocks fall, they could all fall in unison without value seeing any outperformance.

JP Morgan Warns Trump to Cause Market Meltdown

(New York)

The very public grudge match between JP Morgan and President Trump appears to be continuing, albeit in a more subtle way this week. Strategists at JP Morgan went on the record saying that one of the biggest risks to the market right now is that Trump overestimates the US economy and makes a major miscalculation in his trade war with China. The big worry is that Trump takes the trade war too far and sends China into a recession, which would then reverberate and cause a global reversal, shocking markets.


FINSUM: China experiencing a significant downturn could cause a chain reaction amongst EM and developed economies which could come back to sting the whole western world.

The Best Long-term Dividend Stocks

(New York)

Many investors may be looking for the best possible combination of high dividend yield and stability. Many companies with very high yields are not stable, so there is often a tradeoff between the two. With that in mind, here are three dividend stocks whose payouts should be reliable for decades to come. The first is a smaller REIT called CareTrust (4.6% yield), which is focused on growing its real estate footprint to handle the US’ aging population. Nike (1%) is another option. The dividend yield is not high, but it is hard to think of a more reliable payer. Finally, there is Canadian space stock, Maxar, which is growing strongly and offers a great dividend yield (considering how small and young it is) of 3.3%.


FINSUM: This is a serious mix of options from three entirely different sectors. Definitely some interesting choices to look into.

Kavanaugh Says He Won’t Withdraw

(Washington)

The trouble for Supreme Court justice-nominee Kavanaugh continues to pile up. Not only has one woman come forward with allegations of sexual misconduct, but now another has done so. Kavanaugh is set to give testimony, along with his accuser, on Thursday, but just as this was decided, a new accuser (this from his college years) has come forward. In a rare television interview, Kavanaugh confirmed yesterday that he had not sexually assaulted anyone, ever, and that he would not be withdrawing from the nomination hearings.


FINSUM: This is a very high stakes nomination considering the midterm elections are looming. There are certainly more fireworks to come.
