Key arguments

Brent crude's 72.4% YTD rise and gold near $4,185 reflect persistent commodity strength.
Eurozone sovereign spreads diverge: OAT 10Y rose 54.5bp over one month while Bund 10Y fell 16.0bp over one week.
US Treasury curve remains elevated with 10Y at 5.24%.
Equity performance diverges sharply: Nikkei +37.1% YTD versus China -14.1% and India -17.5%.

Key numbers

Brent crude: $104.89/bbl
Gold: $4,185/oz
Bund 10Y yield: 3.46%
OAT 10Y yield: 4.76%
US Treasury 10Y yield: 5.24%

Main risks

Eurozone sovereign spread divergence could intensify if OAT yields continue rising while Bunds fall.
Elevated US Treasury yields at 5.24% may weigh on equity valuations.
Goldman Sachs? No. Gold's decline over 1-month (-4.7%) despite YTD strength suggests commodity volatility.
