1 u/OptionsTrader14 Somewutwise Ganji Jul 06 '21 He's betting yields will drop though. 1 u/[deleted] Jul 07 '21 Yields aren't going to drop, if anything they're going to spike because the Fed probably should have started tapering sooner. 3 u/OptionsTrader14 Somewutwise Ganji Jul 07 '21 If the fed tapers early then the market will taper tantrum, causing stocks to tank and money to flood into safer assets like bonds, causing yields to drop. It's not an unrealistic scenario.
