Matthew Graham
on May 31 2019, 8:34 AM
In the day just past, bonds traded an "outside day" (high and low yields of the day fell OUTSIDE the highs and lows from the previous day). This signals both indecision and volatility. In other words, bonds weren't sure which way to go,...

After at least 2 days of (or more) of relatively disconnected markets (i.e. trading levels weren't reliably following any single market mover), today is starkly different. There's one single elephant in Friday's room, or perhaps it's a...

Although the 10am ISM Manufacturing Report can definitely have an impact on bonds today, The 2pm FED Announcement and 2:30pm press conference is the biggest to-do. There's effectively no chance that the Fed will make any change to its target interest...

The overnight session was very quiet for bonds with most major markets closed for various holidays. The first meaningful movement followed the ISM Manufacturing report's major miss (52.8 vs 55.0). This was the lowest since October 2016 and several...

2.50% has been more than just a reasonably round number marking the midpoint between 2.0% and 3.0% as far as 10yr Treasury yields are concerned. Actually, I take that back. That's exactly what it is, and that's exactly why it's been important...
