Daily Vault Briefing

Today

In short

Today the biggest share of the vault's new buying goes to US Treasuries (40%), then the S&P 500 (31%) and gold (29%). US government bonds pay about 4.88% a year right now (the 10-year yield), which the model reads as high. Higher benchmark yields strengthen the income case for Treasuries. On the other side, bonds pay about 2.66% a year above expected inflation (the real yield), which the model reads as high. Gold pays no interest, so higher real yields make it costlier to own.

The detail

US Treasuries lead at 40%, ahead of the S&P 500 at 31% and gold at 29%. The 10-year Treasury yield, what the US government pays to borrow for 10 years, is high at 4.88%, strengthening Treasuries and weighing on stocks. Credit spreads, the extra yield investors demand to lend to riskier companies, are tight at 3.34%, favoring stocks, but have widened 0.23 percentage points over 20 trading days, supporting gold and Treasuries. Real yields, what 10-year inflation-protected Treasuries pay after inflation, are high at 2.66%, weighing strongly on gold, which pays no interest; the mix stays diversified.

What the vault is reading

Green favors that asset, red weighs against it, grey is neutral. These readings explain the decision. They never set it: the proportions come from deterministic, bounded code.
