Very bad day for gilts. There's been a few this year.
Nowhere near as bad as Truss era ofc, but I think that insane time has skewed our perception.
For instance, a rise in 30yr yields such as happened today only happened once in 10 years pre-COVID.
And not once during the 10 years to late 2008.

Great podcast from Jack and the IFS.
I'm not sure it's an altogether positive development that the bond market now features so heavily in UK political coverage. But we are where we are, and if you'd like to understand it better, this podcast is for you.
NEW PODCAST: Are we in hock to the bond market?
