Which Twitter accounts do bond market insiders follow?
The Bond Market Edition: the Top 50 and Top 500 Twitter accounts
Who are Twitter’s insiders when it comes to the FOMC, long bonds, QT, the yield curve, fed funds, etc?
We’ve crunched the numbers to find the 50 accounts most often followed in by bond market insiders on Twitter. (More on our methodology after the list.)
If you’re looking for new accounts to follow to ensure you’re not missing any important bond market news or relevant prognostications, this list is a essential reading.
Focus particularly on accounts that have fewest total followers, like the ones bolded below. Odds are they’re particularly insightful… or less full of BS.
