Global bonds are reeling as oil surge rekindles inflation threat
What it means
The new and distinct element here is the bond market transmission: oil-driven inflation fears are actively repricing long-duration government bonds lower as real yields rise. This channel — Treasuries and rate-sensitive equities selling off — was not covered in prior signals and represents a genuine new leg of the story. Historically, sustained oil-driven inflation scares have been associated with meaningful selloffs in long-duration bonds and pressure on growth stocks. (Lower-conviction channels were filtered out by our selectivity bar.)
