Based on the number of times members have searched the term "SLR" on MBS Live in the past week, we'll go ahead and cover it here again. SLR = Supplemental Leverage Ratio. It limits the amount that banks can lend. In April 2020, the Fed made...

For the 17th time in 2021, we can unhappily re-use the same lead in: just when you thought bonds surely wouldn't get any weaker... 10yr yields hit more new long-term highs overnight (currently at 1.66%+, putting the 1.75% target--the one that seemed...

Last week ended poorly for the bond market with yields jumping to new one year highs. It was also the first full week with 10yr yields trading above 2019's low yield of 1.44%. Despite the break of the 1.62% ceiling, yields stayed fairly close, and...
