The Bond Market Gives the 'All Clear' Signal By Brett Eversole, editor, Stansberry Research Not that long ago, the economy was on the brink... The "Liberation Day" tariff announcement was brand-new. Markets were crashing. And economic warning signs were popping up everywhere you looked. One of the most worrisome warnings came from the bond market. Interest-rate spreads were exploding. And as I explained to DailyWealth readers on April 24, that was a terrible sign... if it kept going. This dangerous trend has reversed, though. The bond market's warnings are all but gone. And that means you don't need to stress about the rebound that's underway. Let me explain...

If you know what's coming next, you could double your money with a powerful new vehicle that represents just 2.3% of public companies, he says.

Gold Shock (Insane New Prediction) Today's price movements in gold are identical to setups we've seen before, including gold's historic 2,300% leap in the 1970s after President Richard Nixon took the U.S. off the gold standard. And even though many investment firms are focused on the $4,000 target price – I'm convinced gold will soar past $5,000. And I've found a much better way to profit from this new gold boom than buying bullion, miners, or exchange-traded funds. In times of market stress, there's one place you can look for direction: the bond market. Stock investors panic at any sign of trouble. But bond investors only worry when the storm clouds are worth paying attention to. Folks were right to be scared in early April. The bond market showed that a horrible economic situation could unfold in front of our eyes. But recently, that has changed... Interest-Rate Spreads Moved Back to Normal The big indicator at the time was the interest-rate spread between risky high-yield bonds and risk-free U.S. Treasury bonds. When this spread spikes, it means bond investors are worried about defaults on risky bonds. And that only happens when a recession is imminent. Thankfully, the clouds lifted. This interest-rate indicator – known as the high-yield bond spread – recently fell back to a more normal level. Take a look... The high-yield spread soared from 2.6 percentage points to 4.6 percentage points in a matter of weeks. The bond market was in a crisis of confidence. The real danger was that spreads might keep soaring... But they didn't. Instead, as the chart shows, they fell back below pre-Liberation Day levels. That's because folks have been buying bonds again. The chart below shows mutual fund and exchange-traded fund ("ETF") flows into bond funds by month. These flows went hugely negative in April as investors panicked... Then, they rebounded in May. Take a look.. Investors have bought bonds like crazy in recent years. But that ended during the April panic, when we saw about $52 billion in outflows. That was the fifth-worst month for bond flows since the data began in 2013. But we saw a sharp rebound in May, with an inflow of $58 billion. The data tells a clear story... The tariff shock spooked bond investors and threatened the economy. But those investors aren't worried now. The "smart money" recently moved back to buying. Of course, that doesn't mean new problems won't arise in the future. But the red light we were getting from the bond market is gone. That means we don't have to worry if the stock market rebound is a false move higher. Instead, we can trust the rally – and get bullish. Good investing, Brett Eversole Editor's note: We've seen big swings in stocks and the economic outlook recently. And amid this environment, Chaikin Analytics founder Marc Chaikin just went on camera for a big announcement... During a special presentation, he shared the details of the most lucrative new investment vehicle he has discovered in 50 years on Wall Street. And as he explains, it could double or triple your money on multiple occasions over the coming months. This vehicle represents fewer than 3% of public companies. And historically, it has worked especially well in the kind of choppy market we've seen recently. Get the details from Marc right here.
