TREE NEWS reports: Andromeda Capital Management UK LLP co-founder Alberto Gallo said credit markets show signs of extreme complacency, with credit spreads at historic lows that fail to reflect underlying risk. He warned bondholders are heading toward losses as risk structurally shifts from equities and real assets into fixed income, driven by a historic investment boom and surging government spending. Gallo said US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent faces an ‘impossible trinity’: controlling the yield curve, not cutting the fiscal deficit, and maintaining a strong dollar.
Andromeda’s Gallo Warns Bondholders Face Losses, Sees Bessent in ‘Impossible Trinity’
Gallo's warning lands as a structural argument rather than a trade call: the thesis is that risk is migrating into fixed income precisely when spreads price none of it, a mismatch that matters for anyone holding credit as a safe asset. The 'impossible trinity' framing is the more interesting part, since it implies Treasury policy has no clean exit and that curve, deficit and dollar objectives will keep colliding. Whether spreads ever reprice toward his view, or complacency simply persists while government spending sustains the boom he describes, is the open question.
