Billionaire money manager Jeffrey Gundlach warned that a 1940s-era central bank policy may make a return if long-dated bond yields continue to rise.
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell may implement yield-curve control should rates on Treasury securities drive much higher, the DoubleLine Capital chief investment officer said in a webcast Tuesday. Economists have speculated that the central bank could introduce yield targets as soon as September.
