Bank for International Settlements: Swap spreads are reflecting investors' concerns about excessive bond supply. The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) pointed out that huge government loans are having an impact on the global interest rate market, saying that investors have demanded higher premiums for buying sovereign bonds. In its quarterly report released on Tuesday, the agency pointed out that the swap spreads of various currencies and maturities have narrowed rapidly in recent months, which are "signs of possible oversupply". As investors are worried about huge debt and deficit expansion, the yields of government bonds in the euro zone and Japan have recently exceeded comparable swap rates. This leads to the so-called swap spread becoming negative. Because national debt is usually regarded as a safer investment than interest rate swap, it is unusual for the swap spread to enter the negative range. According to the Bank for International Settlements, the negative swap spread seems to reflect the pressure faced by investors and intermediaries because they need to absorb more government bonds in the near future. In the United States, the swap spreads for some maturities have been negative for many years.The Australian dollar fell 1% against the US dollar to 0.6375.The proportion of recruitment positions requiring a bachelor's degree in the United States has declined. According to the data of Indeed Hiring Lab, about one in every six recruitment positions in the United States requires a bachelor's degree or above, and this proportion has been declining since the outbreak of the new crown. The proportion of vacancies requiring a bachelor's degree dropped from about 20% in 2019 to 17.6% in October. Indeed said in a report that this means that there may be hundreds of thousands of additional jobs for more than 60% people without college degrees in the United States to choose from.
