Investors face a triple threat that in the past have been consistent with trouble.
Investors face a triple threat that in the past have been consistent with trouble, economist Mohamed El-Erian said Monday. Those daunting factors entail a jump in the 10-year Treasury yield to its highest since the early days of the financial crisis, oil hitting its peak of the year, and a pronounced move up in the U.S. dollar.
El-Erian said the violence in Gaza might temporarily send investors looking for a safe haven in Treasuries. Yields rise as prices fall. Despite the likelihood of more bloodshed following the Hamas attack on Israel, markets overall remained relatively calm, with stock market futures down less than 1% and oil up more than 3%. "The big question for the markets and for the economy is whether you get escalation," El-Erian said.
