BONDS: Goldman Sachs's Global Head of markets and Macro, Francesco Garzarelli
writes that GS forecasts "higher bond yields, and higher implied long rate
volatility." 
- Garzarelli points out that while the Fed's move yesterday is de-coupling short
rates "long-term bonds remain highly correlated across regions, driven by an
unusually high degree of co-movement in the term premium".
- Looking at next year Goldman writes "as Fed Funds break above 2%, we think
that the market may test the resolve of the ECB and the BoJ to keep negative
rates, leading to some re-coupling in rate expectations" and Goldman expects the
term premium to break higher, hence higher long rates and higher long implied
vols.
