5-year real rates (nominal rates minus inflation expectations) are important investment decision indicators. Positive real rates indicate investment returns exceed inflation, favoring savings and investment; negative real rates encourage consumption and borrowing.
5-year real rates have a negative correlation with asset prices. When real rates rise, prices of risk assets like stocks and real estate often fall, as investors demand higher risk premiums. Conversely, risk asset prices rise when real rates fall.
US 5-year real rates affect global investment decisions, with positive real rates encouraging savings and investment, while negative real rates stimulate consumption and borrowing. Changes transmit to 3-year Treasuries, 7-year Treasuries and other medium-term rates, affecting global capital allocation.
US 5-year real rates are typically higher than German 5-year bonds real rates, reflecting differences in US economic growth expectations and inflation expectations. European real rates are affected by ECB accommodative policies and low inflation environment, remaining at low levels for extended periods.
