Quotes from Capital Economics:
- The "stripped" spread over US Treasuries of the JP Morgan EMBI+ index of emerging market dollar-denominated bonds recently dipped below 275bp, in the process reaching its lowest level in more than a year.
- We doubt the rally will continue, but don't think the spread is likely to balloon. Our forecast is that it will end next year at 315bp, as a gradually less accommodative Fed dulls investors' appetite for risk.
- Indeed, the spread of the EMBI+ remains rather high in relation to, say, the spread over Treasuries of similarly-rated US corporate bonds, which has also fallen sharply over the past year or so. The upshot is that we are not convinced that there is a big bubble in the prices of emerging market dollar-denominated bonds that will burst soon.
