In-Range Volatility on Tariff Headlines, But Broadly Sideways If you are following along with intraday market movement and not taking breaks to zoom the chart out, volatility seems to be rather extreme at the moment. Bonds began the day in stronger territory, bounced back to unchanged in the first 30 minutes, rallied sharply after data, gave up the rally almost immediately thereafter and then continued selling back to unchanged levels just before the 3pm CME close.  All of the above transpired in a 9bp range in 10yr yields, but moved of it was in a 4bp range. Tariff headlines are certainly good for some of that in-range volatility, but we have yet to see them set any big picture tones.  Today's best attempt was the selling spree just after 10am ET following news that tariffs on Mexico would be delayed until March 1st.  Econ Data / Events S&P Manufacturing PMI 51.2 vs 50.1 f'cast, 49.4 prev ISM Manufacturing PMI 50.9 vs 49.8 f'cast, 49.3 prev ISM Prices 54.9 vs 52.6 f'cast, 52.5 prev Market Movement Recap 09:56 AM Slightly stronger overnight as stocks swoon on tariff announcements.  MBS up 1 ticks and 10y down 2.9bps at 4.508 10:54 AM Lots of volatility surrounding 10am ISM data and US/Mexico tariff pause.
