Yields are pulling back due to the latest inflation numbers. It's only one data point but more likely rates are beginning to peak. I locked in some 5 year CDs at 5% from Capital one (adding to some ultra-conservative investments) and placed many orders for more new issue high grade corporates from GS and Citigroup (anything over 6% coupons). 5 year callable high grade notes are now yielding 5.4%. The new issues were from US and Canadian banks were selling out fast and now are all gone. I still have a lot of dry powder for tax loss selling season.
Thanks Freedom..Looks like all the Citigroup new notes at Schwab are gone. I hope my orders fill.. I too will likely begin to assume rates are at or near peak...Thanks again..
