Monday, May 20, 8:22 AM Guggenheim announces the closing of its Chinese Yuan bond ETF (RMB), effective June 14 as the fund failed to generate significant investor interest since its 2011 launch.

Monday, August 13, 2012, 12:15 PM Emerging debt remains remains frothy despite growing economic headwinds, writes Mike Riddell, noting an issue of long-term Peruvian debt last week hit a yield spread to Treasurys of just 109 bps. Given the bid-ask on this illiquid paper is 100 bps, it is pricing in almost no credit risk. It's pre-2008 territory. "Bubbletastic." 1 Comment [Global & FX]
Thursday, June 7, 2012, 2:36 PM When life deals you lemons ... banks (particularly European ones) cutting back lending activity in Asia is leading to a ramp in the development of the corporate bond market there. Companies (ex-Japan) issued $398B in bonds last year, up 29% Y/Y as syndicated bank loans dove 44%. Comment! [Global & FX]
Thursday, April 5, 2012, 12:32 PM A new offering of ETFs offers high yield investors greater international - both developed and emerging - exposure. EMHY is designed to track the Morningstar Emerging High Yield Bond Index, the HYXU sticks to developed countries, and the GHYG adds international (developed) exposure to the popular HYG.

Monday, February 27, 2012, 3:51 AM Opinions are diverging among big bond funds about emerging-market debt, with some funds piling in as others pull out, and both sides unsure of the ultimate impact Europe's debt crisis will have on global growth. Investors, meanwhile, poured a net $2B into emerging-market debt in January, up 72% from Jan. 2011 and up 167% from Jan. 2009. Comment! [Global & FX]
Friday, January 6, 2012, 1:42 PM Follow the Shanghai Composite as it's been an excellent leading indicator for U.S. stocks, says Jeff Gundlach in his 2012 outlook. Turning to the bond market, he's bullish on the greenback, putting most of his funds in dollar-denominated assets, but also nibbling at emerging market credit (EMB). As for high yield (HYG), he doesn't believe it's yet cheap enough. Comment! [Global & FX, U.S. Economy]
Tuesday, December 13, 2011, 11:04 AM Mike Riddell returns from a trip to Asia with video diary actually feeling a bit better about Chinese property where he says there is no evidence of a bubble in the tier 2 and tier 3 cities. One story we may start hearing more about is Asian reliance on trade finance provided by European banks who are certain to be pulling back from the business as they deleverage. Comment! [Global & FX]
Tuesday, December 6, 2011, 2:53 AM Asia is facing "much greater downside risks" because of the possibility of new recessions in the U.S. and EU, and the threat of destabilizing capital flows, says the Asian Development Bank. The possibility of another global financial crisis means Asian countries must have "sufficient flexibility" to rapidly adjust policies. 5 Comments [Global & FX]
Tuesday, November 29, 2011, 9:04 AM Europe's issues are secular and global, writes Bill Gross, "reflecting worldwide delevering and growth dynamics that began in 2008." In this environment, 5% long term portfolio growth will put investors near the top of the class. Focus on the "cleanest dirty shirts" - U.S., Canada, U.K., and Oz - as well as a resource-rich EMs like Brazil. Comment! [Global & FX]
