An article from Bloomberg published April 14th, discusses how US Treasury bonds, traditionally considered ultra-safe investments during market turbulence, are behaving unusually amid President Trump’s trade war with China.

This concerning pattern has prompted comparisons to emerging market debt and raised questions about Treasuries’ status as the world’s premier safe haven investment.
