The 11-Day Weekend is Now Official
2 Hours, 42 Min ago
If there was one objective hurdle to clear in order to consider the present week completely uneventful in terms of big picture rate momentum, it would have been that the 10yr Treasury yield hold inside the 4.34 – 4.50 range. Thanks to today’s friendly revision in consumer inflation expectations, the hurdle was cleared without a millimeter to spare. With that, these business days plus the adjacent weekend days add up to 11 uneventful days for the bond market. Next week isn’t much better in terms of big ticket data, but Friday’s PCE price index is a notable exception.
