Equities remained under severe pressure for most of the period [...]. US bonds held up best on safe-haven.
I don't get the exact meaning of "on safe-haven". Does it mean "because these US bonds are safe-haven assets" ? Thank you.

English term (edited):
US bonds held up best on safe-haven
Selected
US (Treasury) bonds are (or were, depending on the circumstances) held as (or for) best safe-haven
I think you're right. Or might be "US Treasury bonds were being held as the best safe-haven".

: If you held US bonds you were safe, they were a safe Haven away from all the truma happening in the market.
