- Wednesday, June 19, 2:13 PM Bond prices (TLT -0.7%) slip following the more upbeat assessment of the economy from the FOMC. Higher growth and lower unemployment projections spell maybe a quicker schedule for tapering and eventual tightening, but materially lower inflation expectations say the opposite. Stocks give up a bit of ground as well, the S&P 500 (SPY -0.3%). The dollar (UUP +0.3%) pops higher across the board. 3 Comments [U.S. Economy, On the Move]
- Wednesday, May 29, 8:29 AM Treasurys are no longer a sell, says Goldman, closing out its (highly profitable) short in the 10-year note this morning. (via Doug Kass). Higher earlier, the 10-year yield is now 1 bp lower on the session at 2.15%. TLT +0.7% premarket, TBT -0.9%. 5 Comments [U.S. Economy, On the Move]
- Wednesday, April 25, 2012, 2:12 PM Stocks stumble just a little following changes to the FOMC's economic forecast which show an upgraded view of the economy and inflation's speed - not the sort of estimates put together by a group fixing to launch additional policy easing. DJIA +0.3%, S&P 500 +1%. 3 Comments [U.S. Economy, On the Move]
- Wednesday, March 14, 2012, 1:15 PM Treasury prices get no relief from a reasonable auction of 30-year paper, the long bond still down nearly 2 full points, and the yield 10.5 bps higher at 3.38%. The 10-year note is off a point and a quarter, the yield up 10 bps to 2.24%. TLT -2.2%. 8 Comments [U.S. Economy, On the Move]
- Friday, March 9, 2012, 8:47 AM Treasury prices head south following the solid NFP report, Thirty-year bond futures diving more than half a point. Moving in the other direction is the yield, +4 basis points to 3.22%. On the short end, September 2014 Eurodollar futures budge 3.5 basis points lower, pricing in a slightly greater chance of future Fed rate hikes. 1 Comment [U.S. Economy, On the Move]
- Monday, November 28, 2011, 3:31 PM Despite a big green day in equities worldwide, price action in Treasuries reminds that risk remains and the economy is still slow. A Pavlovian move higher early reverses with the 10 year yield now lower by a basis point to 1.96%, after hitting 2.08% this morning. TLT flat for the day, +28% YTD. Comment! [U.S. Economy, On the Move]
- Thursday, October 27, 2011, 1:29 PM Already down big on the day, Treasuries extend losses after a weak auction of 7 year notes. The 30 year bond yield is up 20 basis points to 3.43%; at 2.36%, the 10 year is back to early August levels. The long-suffering holders of the leveraged short bond ETF catch a break. TBT +6%. Comment! [U.S. Economy, On the Move]
- Tuesday, September 27, 2011, 8:24 AM Treasury bonds are falling (yields rising) for the third consecutive day as investors rush back into risk assets. The 30-year yield is back up to 3.10%, meaning it has given back the entirety of its eye-popping rally from the 36 hours following the Fed's Operation Twist announcement. TLT -1.5% premarket. Comment! [U.S. Economy, On the Move]
- Monday, August 8, 2011, 4:19 PM Treasury yields sank as investors didn't think twice about parking money in sovereign debt rated a mere AA. Treasury bond yields: 7-year -20 points to 1.72%, 10-year -21 points to 2.35%, 30-year -18 points to 3.67%. Comment! [U.S. Economy, On the Move]
- Monday, August 8, 2011, 12:32 PM A flight-to-quality by investors trumps - by a long shot - concerns over holding U.S. debt after S&P's downgrade brings buyers in droves out of stocks and into the now "AA-rated" safe haven. Treasury yields: 2-year -5 points to 0.25%, 5-year -16 points to 1.09%, 10-year -18 points to 2.38%. 3 Comments [On the Move, Quick Ideas]
- Thursday, May 5, 2011, 3:35 PM Ten-year Treasurys take out their low yield for the year, now sitting at 3.17%. Amid S&P downgrades, famous short sellers, and chatter about a default if the debt ceiling isn't raised, money finds its way into U.S. government securities when trouble arises. TLT +1.0%, TBF -1.1%. 3 Comments [U.S. Economy, On the Move]

Josh Krause: Switch will require a change in management at the Fed. Long bond won't go up till Bernanke is shown the door. -
Josh Krause: Even then they will likely not let it rise too much to keep debt servicing costs low. I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so.
