US 10Y TREASURY: retail sales eased the sentimentThe US Treasury market was under influence of the posted data for the Retail Sales in the US in September, as a potential add-on to the total inflation in the country. Released data were in line with the market consensus, as the indicator was higher by 0,4% in September, leading to yearly increase of 1,7%. Without other posted data which would add to the potential move of the inflation in the US, the 10Y US yields eased a bit, and tested the 4,0% level. Still, at Friday trading session, yields ended the week a bit higher, at the level of 4,075%. In the week ahead there are no macro data scheduled for a release, which could point to potential inflation movements, in which sense, it could be expected a relatively calmer week when US yields are in question. There is some probability that yields could test the 4,0% level for one more time, while odds are quite low for the move toward the upside.

Bond Divergences: ECB Under Pressure from FedThe European Central Bank (ECB) is under pressure to cut interest rates for the third time this year, prompted by the surprise 50 basis point cut announced by the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) in September. Although the ECB had planned to wait until December to make another cut, recent economic data, such as weak PMIs and falling inflation in the Eurozone, have forced its hand, making an October cut inevitable. As the Fed slows its cutting cycle, the ECB seems trapped with no choice but to press ahead, despite the risks of further euro depreciation and rising inflationary pressures. The divergence between the monetary policies of the two central banks also reflects a widening gap in bond markets. In this context, the gap between US and German bonds continues to widen. US 10-year bond yields have risen sharply, while in Germany the increase has been minimal, reaching a gap of 183 basis points, the widest since July. According to Goldman Sachs, this gap could reach 200 points in the coming months, driven by solid growth in the US economy, while the eurozone continues to struggle with weakness in Germany and France. This has led more investors to opt for U.S. bonds, exacerbating pressure on the ECB to lower rates. Elsewhere, in Asia, bond inflows declined in September, with a net total of $4.99 billion, well down from $14.09 billion in the previous month. This slowdown reflects investor caution about possible Fed rate cuts and uncertainties related to the US elections. However, the inclusion of Asian bonds in global indices could revitalize inflows in the future as investors seek new opportunities in the region. Looking at the performance of US, German and Eurozone 10-year bonds, we can note that the first two have followed relatively similar candlestick trajectories, while the Eurozone bond has experienced greater fluctuations and volatility. This has generated significant disparities, including relevant price gaps in mid-July. If we compare the US bond, which currently trades at 4.038%, with the German bond, which stands at 2.208%, we see that, although Germany is trying to keep pace with the US, Europe is not helping to boost German bond yields. In fact, the Eurozone bond appears to be moving steadily in the opposite direction to the other two. It will be interesting to see whether the German bond continues to replicate the performance of the U.S. bond or whether it starts to correlate with the U.S. bond. In summary, central banks in Europe and the US are on divergent paths, which is reflected in the bond market, with the ECB facing difficult decisions and global investors readjusting their strategies depending on monetary policy and geopolitical uncertainties.

INCOMING LOWER HIGHS!!When they bring the talking heads on TV and make them say: "we haven't seen anything yet, yields are going higher!", you know it's time to buy them! Every single time they do this, bonds yields are either making higher highs or very close to those "local tops". It was identical prior to October 7th of last year. Look it up as a reference. If you don't like that relation, how about you look up Ray Dalio 'warning us, poor naive investors' to NOT BUY LONG TERM NOTES. Yields going up is nothing but a big lie in my moronic opinion. This is the next 'Lower high' and I think we're now heading with clean air down to 3.26% on the 10yr note.

Why the US 10-Year Yield Deserves Close AttentionThe 10-year US Treasury yield, at its highest since July, has mostly moved sideways this year. However, the weekly chart reveals a potential falling wedge pattern. If yields close above 4.53%, it could signal a push towards new highs. Initial resistance is at 4.18% (200-day moving average) and 4.24% (55-week moving average). Markets expect a 25-basis point Fed rate cut in November, but investors are watching key economic data, and Fed comments for further insights. Keep this on your radar, because while the market holds above 3.50, this longer term potentially bullish pattern will remain valid.

US 10Y TREASURY: driven by inflationThe inflation data were the ones that the market was watching closely during the previous week. The September inflation came just a bit higher from the market estimate. While core inflation remained elevated at 0,3% for the month and 3,3% for the year, the inflation figures were standing at 0,2% in September and 2,4% for the year. As inflation is holding modestly above Feds target of 2,0%, the markets are anticipating the next Feds move. Whether they will cut in November or maybe, the next cut will be postponed for December. This question came after the Atlanta Fed President Bostic noted in an interview that the higher inflation data might impact his opinion to skip a rate cut in November. The US Treasury yields reacted accordingly during the previous week, where 10Y US yields were pushed to the levels above the key 4,0% level. The highest weekly yields reached were at 4,1%, however, they slipped modestly toward the 4,073% at Friday's trading session. As the market is digesting the latest inflation, it should be expected for yields to calm down a bit in the week ahead. The next target of markets might be to test levels below the 4,0%, where 3,9% or even 3,8% might be the next targets.

Bullish rates reversal signals US dollar downside riskIf you want clues on directional risks for the US dollar, there are worse places to look than US 2-year Treasury note futures, shown in the left-hand pane of the chart. As one of the most liquid futures contracts globally, the price signals it provides can be very informative for broader markets, especially in the FX universe. Having tumbled most of October, implying higher US yields given the inverse relationship between the two, the price action this week looks potentially important. We saw the price take out long-running uptrend support on Wednesday before staging a dramatic bullish reversal on Thursday despite another hot US inflation report. The bounce off the 200-day moving average on the back of big volumes delivered not only a hammer candle but also took the price back above former uptrend support, delivering a bullish signal that suggests directional risks for yields may be skewing lower. You can see that in the right-hand pane with US 2-year bond yields hitting multi month highs on Thursday before reversing lower. But it’s the correlation analysis beneath the chart that I want you to focus on, looking at the strength of the relationship US 2-year yields have had with a variety of FX pairs over the past fortnight. USD/JPY has a score of 0.9 with USD/CNH not far behind at 0.89, signalling that where US 2-year yields have moved over the past two weeks, these pairs have almost always followed. EUR/USD, GBP/USD and AUD/USD have experienced similarly strong relationships over the same period with scores ranging from -0.88 to -0.96, the only difference being where yields have moved, they’ve usually done the opposite. The broader readthrough is that shorter-dated US yields have been driving US dollar direction recently, with rising rates fuelling dollar strength. But given the bullish signal from US 2-year Treasury note futures on Thursday, if we just saw the lows, it implies we may have seen the highs for US yields and the US dollar. Good luck! DS

$TNX The little Yield that could. You think the Great Yield slaughter of the 40 years was something; just feast your eyes on the great Yield breakout, eons in the making. In our next predicted cycle of disastrous economic, but not all that surprising or unexpected economic events; we will now see the Great Bond Slaughter coupled with treasury yields sky high. An event the likes of which the world has never seen. As you can see the TVC:TNX is flagging on all high time frame charts and has several upper targets to reach before then top is in. Our next target being a measured move at 8%. Since we called this breakout 2 years ago, it has not failed to disappoint. You might also want to check out the TVC:VIX and TVC:DXY monthly/quarterly/yearly charts. When the shit goes down, you better get ready. ~Cypress Hill

Very close to Yield Curve Inversion, AGAINAfter #InterestRates were cut people were expecting a furious wave of buying, this has not come into fruition. Recent events: 2Yr Yield rallied substantially. 10Yr #Yield bottomed when we called it, has not run as much as it's shorter term counterpart. We're close to inversion again! Colored areas = POTENTIAL Inverse Head & Shoulder = BOTTOM. Worth noting, TVC:TNX has a higher right shoulder. Further analysis: We are seeing a Negative Divergence on $DJI. Volume has been lessening as the days go by. TVC:RUT Small Caps are LOWER and trading in a tightening range.

10Y bonds seeking support from April-July channelFrom April to July the 10 year Treasury yield was in a downward channel. It broke below that, retested the resistance-now-support for bonds, and kept moving until it recently re-entered. The fundamentals for long bonds still seem strong, with the cutting cycle starting with an abrupt 50bp cut, but bonds seem to be seeking support. If yields break above this channel, then we may be seeing something unexpected sniffed out by the bond market. If we retest and continue the downtrend in yields, then expect a nice downtrend back to the post-2008 norm.

Another great opportunity to work with U.S. T-BondsAnother great opportunity to work with U.S. government debt in the short term. We have all noticed that after the 50 basis point rate cut by the Federal Reserve, the reaction of the fixed income markets was mixed. Geopolitical and domestic issues did not allow institutional investors to act freely, leading to a reverse effect. Currently, another 50 basis point cut is expected, and the treasury curve is in a flattening phase. Yields have risen again. This is exactly what we call a great opportunity to re-enter the markets with 6-12 month expectations. #UBT #TLT #UST #US20Y #US30Y
