TIPS have burst into life after Donald Trump’s win, with breakevens up over 10 bps, but the market is still to fully reflect extant inflation risks that have been exacerbated by the result of the election.
Donald Trump’s victory wasn’t necessary to stoke inflation in the US, but it helps. Price growth has become entrenched and the fabled last mile of disinflation is becoming a marathon.
