Prescient analysis flagged a historical pattern: expensive Brent oil has tended to precede lower US 10-year yields over 12 months.
In the priciest fifth of months, US 10-year yields fell 28 basis points on average; in the cheapest fifth, yields rose 20.
When oil was more than 1.5 standard deviations above trend, 10-year yields were lower a year later 65% of the time.
Study attributed the effect to oil mean reversion and a growth hit from high energy costs, supporting longer-duration positioning.
Report cited February 2022 as a key exception, when an oil spike coincided with 10-year yields rising more than 200 basis points.
