The October 2021 bond selloff differed from the rise in yields earlier that year. Robin Brooks, Jonathan Fortun and Jonathan Pingle find increases spread more broadly across maturities, with a smaller rise in real yields. Greater sensitivity to positive economic surprises suggested renewed focus on recovery and a movement toward, though still short of, conditions seen during the 2013 taper tantrum.

Higher commodity prices were improving exporters’ terms of trade in September 2021 without delivering the currency gains seen after the global financial crisis. Jonathan Fortun and coauthors examine this disconnect in Brazil and other commodity exporters, including Australia. Its breadth challenges an explanation based solely on Brazilian political risk and raises a broader question about why stronger export prices were failing to lift exchange rates.
Fortun warns that Federal Reserve tapering could tighten global financial conditions, while judging contagion risks less severe than in earlier emerging-market sell-offs.

Who absorbed the surge in government borrowing during the pandemic? Robin Brooks, Jonathan Fortun and Jonathan Pingle divide demand for 2020 G10 debt issuance among central banks, foreign investors and other buyers. Their August 2021 comparison finds substantial private demand in the United States and Canada, contrasting with reliance on ECB purchases in the euro periphery and more constrained fiscal room there.

Low government bond yields can overstate the fiscal room available after a crisis. Drawing on emerging market experience, this August 2021 analysis defines fiscal space through access to investors willing to absorb new debt at low yields. It argues that deteriorating market access during the pandemic also affected advanced economies, complicating the case for more deficit spending based on yields alone.
Fortun argues that Latin American central banks' ability to anchor inflation expectations and preserve credibility will shape the region's macroeconomic health.

Why were long term US yields so low in June 2021? Robin Brooks, Jonathan Fortun and Jonathan Pingle identified temporary forces: subdued labor market releases and reduced Treasury issuance as the government drew down its cash balance. After Federal Reserve purchases, net issuance turned negative in the second quarter. They expected these supports for bond prices to fade, strengthening the case for higher yields in the second half of 2021.
