Mark Cudmore Predicts 10-Year Yields to Hit 5% Floor, 30-Year Over 6% in 2027

Aug 12, 2026

The Bloomberg segment on CPI day features Mark Cudmore arguing the US has an ongoing inflation problem but today's print (expected soft) won't worsen it much. He claims the Treasury backdrop is negative regardless, forecasting significantly higher US yields—with 5% on the 10-year as a potential floor and 30-year through 6% next year—driven by strong global and US growth plus high fiscal and private spending. Cudmore then turns bullish on the UK, noting upgraded global GDP forecasts are warranted, positive high-frequency data, and World Bank/IMF figures showing the UK reclaiming fifth place in global GDP rankings ahead of India, countering stagnation narratives. Sourcing relies on Cudmore's analysis, Bloomberg consensus mentions, recent World Bank/IMF data, and high-frequency indicators; no named outside experts or detailed models provided. The throughline is that resilient growth and spending will push yields higher and support UK outperformance despite conventional pessimism.

Bloomberg Analyst Urges More Yen Intervention Below 155

Aug 3, 2026

The Bloomberg segment discusses recent yen strengthening via suspected Japan and coordinated US intervention, alongside dollar weakness linked to geopolitics and the prior week's Federal Reserve meeting under new Chair Kevin Warsh. Guest Mark (likely McCormick or similar) argues the intervention's impact is fading as USD/JPY rebounds from lows, calling for further action below 155 to sustain yen gains, and views the episode as potentially pivotal for the dollar's long-term trajectory despite his structural bearishness. The second half shifts to Asian markets, with negative sentiment tied to Chinese AI advancements threatening hyperscaler business models. The guest sees this as momentous, likely leading to broader global outperformance over US stocks by democratizing AI productivity gains, with caveats for Korea's chip sector but positives for Europe from lower oil.
