New Yield Highs After Post-Fed Follow-Through and Econ Data
1 Hour, 9 Min ago
Any time the market goes to sleep on a Fed day in the midst of a big move, there’s a stronger than average possibility that overseas markets will add some momentum in the prevailing direction. That direction is “UP!” as far as rates and yields are concerned. The overseas FOMO selling brought yields to new long term highs overnight and a big beat in Jobless Claims made for another few bps of selling. After that, bonds managed to level off fairly well, but they may have benefited from the acceleration in stock selling.
