Portfolio managers are raising red flags about the corporate bond market. Yield premiums have compressed to levels unseen since mid-2007, and that's making some nervous. When credit spreads tighten this much, it often signals complacency in the market—investors are pricing in little risk. That's a warning sign worth paying attention to. Whether you're looking at traditional finance or exploring opportunities across different asset classes, understanding these macro signals matters. History shows us that when bond spreads hit these extremes, reversals can be sharp and painful.

Is the 2007 wave coming again? The spread is so tight, be careful.

Is the wave from 2007 coming again? Is the bond market really going to collapse?

I missed the wave in 2007; can I see a replay this time?

I missed that wave in 2007, but I heard it wiped out a bunch of people... Now bond spreads are back to those levels again? Can we escape this time?
