Yield

Yields are CRATERING - WHy?The Debt Market is significantly larger than the #stockmarket so it's VERY IMPORTANT what happens there. It's way too early to see data but, JUST A HUNCH, this is most likely the #FED stepping in & buying bonds trying to calm the markets. This is not normal to see #yields cratering so much. The 1Yr is off almost 3.26% The 2Yr is off 5.01 The 10Yr is off 5.33% This is causing more of an inversion to the yield curve. On other news, banks faltering isn't helping the case for stability or easing the fears of #economy being in turmoil.

Show me a chart that matters more than this?The chart I've created here shows yield on the US 10 Year Treasury Bond. The white line shows its percentage change over the last 12 months. The red line shows the S&P 500. It shows the S&P 500 over the last 12 months. What more needs to be said? The S&P 500 is red over the last year while the yield on bonds continues to rise. REMEMBER: with every increase in bond yield, the risk for things like stocks becomes more difficult. A bond will pay you close to 5%. Apple, on the other hand, will pay a 2% dividend. If Apple does not grow at all, or increase buybacks or new products, or if a recession hits, then the bond yield is indeed the better trade. The further these two assets widen, the more difficult the trade off becomes. HOWEVER, that's not to say that stocks and bond yields cannot go up at the same time. Actually, in prior bull markets, they have risen together. If innovation continues, if economic growth continues, and if inflation starts to get under control, we very likely could see this gap shrink in an instant. I am watching insider transactions to see how much faith top directors, teammates, and employees have in their respective company. Several CEOs have recently bought large chunks of shares out of their own bank accounts. What do this say? Thanks for reading!

🔥 Bond Yield Curve Inversion Reaching -1%: Why It's ImportantAn inverted yield curve occurs when the yield on a 10-year Treasury bond falls below that of a 2-year Treasury bond. Normally, longer-term bonds have higher yields than shorter-term bonds. This is because investors demand a higher return for tying up their money for a longer period of time. However, when short-term interest rates rise above long-term interest rates, it can indicate that investors believe the economy will weaken in the future. This is because investors are willing to accept lower yields on long-term bonds if they believe that interest rates will fall in the future as a result of weak economic growth. Essentially, they are willing to lock in a lower yield now, in the hopes that it will be higher in the future. An inverted yield curve can lead to a number of problems. For example, it can make it more difficult for banks to make money. This is because banks borrow at short-term rates and lend at long-term rates. When the yield curve is inverted, the interest rates that banks earn on loans are lower than the interest rates they pay on deposits. This can squeeze bank profits and make them less willing to lend. And we all know, less money in the market means less potential (risky) investments. An inverted yield curve can also be a sign of a potential recession. Historically, an inverted yield curve has preceded every recession in the United States since WW2. This is because an inverted yield curve can indicate that investors are pessimistic about the future of the economy. They may be selling off stocks and other assets, which can lead to a downturn in the stock market and a decline in consumer confidence. In conclusion, an extremely inverted yield curve like now is a situation in which short-term interest rates on government bonds are higher than long-term interest rates. This can indicate potential economic problems, including a recession and difficulties for banks. While an inverted yield curve is not a guarantee of a recession, the probability of the current yield inversion suggesting a coming recession is very high. It's going to be an interesting year.

USDJPY Outlook 6th March 2023The USDJPY reversed strongly from the 137 round number resistance level, trading lower through the session on Friday, ending the week at the 135.80 price area. This move lower, as we know was due to the weakness in the DXY, hence, if the weakness continues, the USDJPY could continue trading lower, down to retest the 135.35 key support level. The USDJPY could see significant volatility this week, given that the JGB 10yr yield had recently breached the 0.5% ceiling and the BoJ monetary policy statement is due to be released (and it is Kuroda's last meeting as Governor). If the price breaks below the immediate support level, the USDJPY could see significant downside potential, with the next key support level at the round number level of 134.

My Thoughts on Treasury Yields and Why You Should Care5% of on a 1-year US Government Bond Yield? I never thought that I would see the day. Many of us have grown up in a low rate world. Today, you buy a US Treasury bond, hold it for a year, and get 5%. That's more than most stocks yield in dividends, probably nearly double or triple the average. However, it's said that the S&P 500 averages 7% a year or so. Nonetheless, factor in recession fears and the trade becomes even more interesting. What are government bond yields? A government bond is a debt security issued by a government to raise money. When you buy a government bond, you're effectively lending money to the government in exchange for interest payments. The yield on a government bond is the return you'll receive on your investment, expressed as a percentage. So if a bond has a face value of $1,000 and a yield of 3%, you'll receive $30 per year in interest. Why are government bond yields rising? I can list out those reasons for you below: 1. Inflation 2. The Fed is purchasing less Treasuries 3. Economic growth is slowing, which means taxes will be less What are the major implications? Opportunity costs. I'll say it again: Opportunity costs. Everything that is bought, sold, and/or traded now must be weighed against this 5% yield. Do you want to buy Apple for the next year at its current valuation or take a risk to get 5% on a Treasury bond? You can substitute Apple for anything and everything that comes to mind from construction investments to crypto. Do I own any bonds? NO. I missed it and am only now paying attention. Will I potentially add some to my portfolio? 5%? It's possible. That's why I wrote this idea. I want to share my thoughts and add a few of these symbols to my watchlist. I look forward to reading your comments!

USDJPY Outlook 3rd March 2023Overnight, the USDJPY climbed steadily to the upside, reaching the recent high and round number resistance level of 137. However, the price failed to break the resistance level, retracing lower down to the current level of 136.61. While further upside could be expected especially if the DXY continues to strengthen, watch out for significant volatility on the Japanese Yen with the recent news that the Japanese bond yields have again risen above the 0.5% ceiling previously set by the BoJ. On 20th December 2022, when the BoJ increased flexibility by increasing the bond yield ceiling, the USDJPY spiked from the 137.17 level down to 133.50 within the hour. In the meantime, look for the USDJPY to consolidate along the current price level (supported by the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level) before trading higher again with the 138 key resistance level a target level.

Inflation is plateauing and likely to end flat in 2023Inflation is plateauing and likely to end flat in 2023, so what will that impact the markets? Though inflation peaked at 9% last year and has been declining to 6.4%, CPI seems to be plateauing and may close flat in 2023, but this is not good news at all. Why? Because the Fed wanted to see the CPI or inflation coming down to 2% in a sustained manner. Studying across the 2-, 5-, 10- and 30-years yield, we are seeing all the 4 yields almost breaking above its October 2022 all time high again. As long as the inflation remain flat at this current level, the Fed will continue its moderate rate hikes. Therefore, we are expecting more volatility ahead with a flat inflation number. This is definitely bad news for the stock investors, but not for the traders. Since 3rd week of 2022, I have exited from my long-term hold for the U.S. stock markets to trading the U.S. indices with much anticipated inflation and volatility. Also, trading into the Micro Yield Futures. Since it is on an uptrend, I prefer to focus mainly on buy on dip strategy.

TREASURY YIELDS AND THE FED FUNDS RATEThis chart shows the effective federal funds rate in comparison to the 30 year and 3 month yield over the past five years. There are 5 interesting times to look at: 1. Late 2018 long term yields began to peak right before the fed stopped their hiking cycle. Yield curve began to flatten. 2. They then stayed put for about 6 months with the 3MY hovering right around the EFFR. Suddenly, the 3 month yield dips below the fed rate quickly - and they begin dropping their benchmark rate again . 3. Early 2020 the panic of the COVID-19 pandemic caused rates to nose dive and the fed to slash their rate all the way to 0% very quickly. 4. Fed did not raise rates for two years . In early 2022 they began to hike for the first time since 2018. This also coincides with the beginning of the Ukraine conflict. 5. Half a year of steady rate hikes makes it so the EFFR finally passes it's 2018 peak in mid 2022. The 30Y and 30M invert fairly soon after while the fed funds rate overtakes the 30Y yield. Feel free to discuss what you think of these relations and what your predictions are for the future. In my opinion, the more the yield curve inverts the more problems there will be in the financial system. Eventually, term risk will not outweigh the high short-term yields especially once the benchmark rate gets over the inflation rate. I see the fed doing what they are best ate - acting too late.

Is USD rebounding or reversing?Thanks to a strong January employment report, the greenback made an impressive comeback from the weakness since Q4. Someone might expect the strength could persist and even test 2022’s high, but I regard this as a rebound and the dollar will likely trade in a range between 100 to 108 (Dollar Index basis) in 1H 2023. First of all, the strength of greenback last year mainly came from an aggressive rate hike by Federal Reserve that kept the bond yield evaluated and widened the yield differential. As the chart shown, the yield differential of 2-year bond between US and German kept widening since 2H 2021 and reached the peak at Q3 2022. In the meantime, the dollar was on the uptrend against euro and other major currencies. When there was expectation the Fed will slow the hike pace, and ECB was becoming more hawkish to tackle inflation, the yield differential narrowed since Q4 that caused the weakness of dollar. After the FOMC meeting and before the employment report, the market downplayed the need for Federal Reserve to hike rate and even expected a rate cut by the end of this year in response to possible recession, turned a deaf ear to what J. Powell was delivering. Disinflation he mentioned is a term describing the inflation is dropping, which is nothing new that we can see from the inflation data (Benchmark, Core or PCE) in the last few months, and didn’t mean the inflation have dropped to the target level. His remark on 7 Feb about rate could be hiked to a level higher than market expectation showed there are more works Federal Reserve need to do. The strong employment report reminded investor inflation is still a major risk to the economy and the Federal Reserve might need to hike further to contain inflation. Market’s expectation on the “terminal rate” revised upward and the bond yield moved higher that contributed to the rebound of the greenback in the last few days. There are many factors affecting the movement in FX market, but the yield differential seems having a dominant effect in the last few quarters and could be the factors to watch in 1H 2023. I keep my conviction the Fed Funds rate will peak at 5.00% (lower band), which mean two more 25bp hike is coming. However, the hiking pace of ECB is even more hawkish and a 50bp rise is expected in their next meeting, and more could follow after. The higher and stubborn inflation in eurozone could make ECB keep hiking rate even if Fed paused, that might translate to narrower yield differential that is not positive to the greenback. Another interesting area to note is the yield of US 2-year note. The inversion of yield curve is implying a recession, but what if US can avoid recession, especially when the US job market is surprisingly impressive? Assuming US will not have recession, the yield spread between 2-year and 10-year bond should narrow, then how will they move respectively? A normal yield curve is 10-year yield higher than 2-year yield, while I don’t think 10-year yield will have the potential to rise to 4.5% or higher due to disinflation and technical reason, there is not much room for 2-year yield to rise further and even has a potential to retreat. A lower 2-year yield will lower the yield differential against other major currencies, that is negative to the USD. Even US 2-year yield revisit last Nov’s high, the German 2-year yield have risen 50bp from that level already. Since the rebound of the greenback released some overbought pressure and created a better entry point, you might consider a long position on EUR(6E) now, a short-term (1M) target at 1.1000 and a longer-term (1H) target at 1.1500. Stop loss could be set at 1.0500. If you disagree with me and believe the greenback in a reversal mode, you might consider a short position in gold since it could face further pressure after recent correction since it still accumulated meaningful gain in the last few months.
