1) Don’t understand what within-markets and across-markets mean, so no idea.
2) I think this would be true? If expected bond yield is farthest above the forward rate, then due to mean-reversion, it will fall and thus increase the price of the bond. Therefore, more allocation to the bond holdings? fml.
