Investors Shift Away From US Bond Market on Fears over Donald Trump’s Policies
- Investors shifted away from the US bond market in May 2025 amid concerns over President Donald Trump’s tariff policies and economic uncertainty.
- This shift followed Trump's threats of large tariffs on allies and Apple, combined with rising US budget deficits and trade tensions with the EU.
- Major asset managers like Amundi, Pimco, and KKR reported client interest in diversifying bond portfolios toward European and non-dollar assets for higher yield and risk management.
- Vincent Mortier of Amundi noted clients feel ‘‘heavily overweight dollar assets’’, and Henry McVey described Trump's trade war as a catalyst for global investors to seek alternatives.
- The move away from US bonds suggests a potential decline in their role as a safe haven, with implications for higher interest rates and greater market volatility.
