Bonds Shake Off Retail Sales Impact to End Stronger
Bonds Shake Off Retail Sales Impact to End Stronger
This morning's Retail Sales data may have been right in line with forecasts at the headline level, but components of the report were much stronger than expected. As such, the initial sell-off made logical sense, or at least it was able to be explained in hindsight. The rest of the trading day was consistent with 0.0% retail sales growth as bonds slowly regained all of the ground lost in the morning, ultimately hitting the day's best levels just before the 3pm close. MBS underperformed 10yr Treasuries but fared roughly the same as the short end of the yield curve (more on that in today's video).
Sideways to slightly weaker overnight with no major movement so far. MBS down 6 ticks (.19) and 10yr up 2.3bps at 4.182.
