The global bond market is experiencing a severe rout, intensifying as disruptions to oil supply chains persist despite the return of tankers to the Strait of Hormuz.

Investors are grappling with the dual pressures of high energy costs and the resulting inflationary environment, which erodes the value of fixed-income investments and forces a reassessment of market strategies.
