## Prediction

With US 10Y TIPS yields at ~2.5%, risk assets are likely to see further pressure in the next 24 hours, with EM currencies and equities underperforming developed markets. Higher real yields will pull capital toward US Treasuries and away from higher-risk borrowers, steepening funding pressures for frontier sovereigns and corporates. Combined with energy risk, this will tighten global financial conditions and raise the cost of war financing for Ukraine and defense buildup for European states. Confirmation would be broad EM FX weakness against the USD and outflows from EM equity ETFs; denial would require a dovish policy signal that offsets real-rate concerns.

## Drivers

- US 10-year real yields at highest level since 2007
- Historical correlation of rising real yields with EM risk-off
- Increased geopolitical risk in Ukraine and the Gulf amplifying safe-haven flows
