Treasury Yields Hit New Lows Amid Holiday Trading

The 10-year Treasury yield fell to its lowest level since late October, dropping to 4.219% on a holiday-shortened trading day. This decline comes amid a quiet day for U.S. data following Thanksgiving, with the bond market closing early. Earlier in the week, the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation measure rose slightly, and unemployment claims fell, indicating labor market strength. The Fed's meeting minutes suggested a gradual lowering of interest rates if economic conditions remain stable, though potential tariff hikes by President-elect Trump could impact inflation and Fed policy decisions.

"Investor Places Bold Wager on Treasury Plunge Post-Employment Data"

A significant bearish bet has been placed in the options market for US Treasuries, anticipating a sharp rise in 10-year yields following the release of the US jobs report. The trade suggests yields could climb to 4.15% by the end of the trading day, which would be the largest one-day increase since March of the previous year. This move comes amid signs of a strong labor market and could lead to a shift in expectations for Federal Reserve interest rate policies. The outcome of the jobs report, particularly wage data, is expected to heavily influence Treasury movements.

"HSBC Signals Impending 'Reverse Goldilocks' Threat to Markets"

HSBC strategists warn of a potential "reverse Goldilocks" scenario impacting stocks and high-yield bonds due to persistent inflation and overly optimistic market sentiment. Despite the Federal Reserve's plans to cut interest rates, inflation remains high, and wage growth is expected to pick up, which could lead to increased inflationary pressures. As a result, HSBC has shifted to a tactical underweight position in equities and high-yield credit, favoring cash and short-dated investment grade credit instead. Market indicators show mixed performance, with recent job data affecting U.S. stock futures and Treasury yields.
