Will Investor Bailouts Lead to Higher Taxes?

May 4, 2020 By Jeremy Jones, CFA

The Fed has gotten praise from both sides of the aisle for acting quickly and boldly in recent weeks. Who doesn’t like a bailout when it stops their portfolio value from cascading? Well…cascading if you consider a rise in investment-grade corporate bond yields from 2% to 4.5% during what is likely the greatest and most abrupt halting of economic activity in modern history.

He writes in the FT: The coronavirus crisis has thrown the oil market out of balance and like other forecasters, we expect an unprecedented contraction in oil demand this year. But while some are arguing that we have seen the peak in 2019 with consumption never recovering, if anything, the pandemic is likely to significantly delay the structural transformation of the world’s economy away from oil. Although global consumption will fall this … [Read more...]
