JP Morgan is worried who will buy all the bonds… with Fed, China, and Japan selling… and the Treasury running trillion dollar deficits… and bond yields still well below current rate of inflation… who will buy all the bonds…?

“Who Will Buy?” is the exuberant ensemble number from the 1962 musical hit Oliver! It is also the rallying cry of a number of investors and analysts who are worried about who exactly will be purchasing trillions of dollars worth of bonds as inflation bites and public deficits balloon.

Such concerns were on full show last week, when gilt yields soared after the UK government unveiled a mini-budget full of tax cuts that were expected to expand the UK’s debt burden. Prime Minister Liz Truss has since reversed the plan, but worries over the future attractiveness of a wide variety of bonds remains.
