In the fixed income world, the yield on the 10-year Treasury bond briefly broke through 1.60% Thursday. This is still low by historical standards but represents a sharp and rapid. We look at weakness in the bond market (remember, bond prices fall as yields rise) and the resulting equi...
Despite the stock market's gyrations last week, the 10-year Treasury yield spiked above the 1.6% level on Thursday. The catalyst for the surge in yields was a horrific 7-year Treasury bond auction with a very weak bid-to-cover ratio of 2.04. This essentially means the U.S. budget ...
Despite the short-term pullback in yields, the long-term trend for bond yields remains up and the stock market, although weakened, is still not completely in sell territory, although that could change in a hurry. The Fed is either going to have to step up its bond buying to lower rate...
The 10-year Treasury yield fell below 1% in the early stages of the Covid-19 pandemic. As you've probably heard, it's back above that level now and rising fast. Shorter-term rates continue to stay low though, causing a steepening of the yield curve. This week, I am taking a quanti...
