Citigroup strategists suggest investors increase their positions against long-term US bonds due to concerns that President Trump may undermine the Federal Reserve's independence. They anticipate a widening yield gap between 30-year and 5-year Treasuries, leading to a steeper yield curve, as the risk of political influence on the Fed rises. The strategists have initiated this 'curve steepener' trade amidst fears that Trump's actions could increase inflation risks.
