James Cirenza from @DNBMarkets providing an update on the U.S. Capital Markets. Bond yields in the U.S., U.K., France, and Japan have moved sharply higher, reaching levels not seen since the recovery from the dot-com bubble. As the cost of capital rises, companies face higher refinancing costs, more expensive funding for CapEx, and potentially lower valuations. 📊 Shipping, however, remains an area of strong activity within the capital markets. ⚓️ 📽️Watch insights here: capitallink.com/webinars/u-s… #capitalmarkets #UScapitalmarkets #equitymarkets #bonds 📌Capital Link Analyst Updates
