2021's rate spike is big enough and has been going on long enough that there is widespread speculation about how much worse it could get. While it is true that more pain would only increase the odds of a bounce, it's also true that we've seen...

Wednesday's 10yr Auction Could Cast a Big Vote on a Bounce With bonds coming into the session in much stronger shape, and with yields holding underneath recent highs at 1.62% for almost 2 weeks now, it's fair to start wondering if 1.62% is as...

Much like February 26th, overnight strength in the bond market allows us to ask the same obvious question: "is this the bounce?" Much like Feb 26th, the answer is definitely maybe. As of right now, we'd need a much bigger rally to even get...

Over the past 3-4 months, the prospect of fiscal stimulus has done major damage to the bond market. It wouldn't have been a surprise to see more weakness this morning due to the confirmation that the full $1.9 trillion made it through the senate ...

There seems to be a fair amount of surprise and confusion surrounding today's bond market sell-off in response to Fed Chair Powell's Q&A with the WSJ. First off, this wasn't a Q&A so much as a PSA to address some fairly far-fetched...

Bonds had a great day yesterday--not so much because the rally covered a ton of ground, but rather because it helped build a case for the end of the more abrupt selling pressure seen in February. The hope was (and still is, to some extent), that March...
