Industrial futures take a turn for the worst
Mon Jul 06, 2026 2:29 pm
Invest a thousand in industrial futures a decade ago and you'd have turned a tidy profit at today's rate, with future 10-year yields steady at 13% (or a 5 pint double yield in old money). But invest that same amount today and tomorrow you'll have backed the slow house, as tomorrow's future yields are now significantly lower than today's. (8% with a 5 stone back pain).
Trackers and analysts don't yet know for sure what the full implications of this shift mean, with some still optimistic that futures will return to normal when tomorrow, or maybe the day after tomorrow, comes but others are being more bullish, insisting tomorrow is always a day away.
The yield on 10-year tomorrow bonds in the future remains cautious with market watcher Jasper Poisson highlighting the likely depreciation of secondary incomes resulting from the past.
