MBS Fully Recover After Initial Reaction to Inflation Data
MBS Fully Recover After Initial Reaction to Inflation Data
There's no question that this morning's PPI data hit the bond market. The volume spike was easily higher than that seen with yesterday's CPI and the market movement left nothing to the imagination. In the big picture, a few bps of weakness in bond yields isn't that alarming, but if we consider PPI isn't usually a big deal and that yields were already pushing recent highs, things begin looking more meaningful. Despite the initial reaction, bonds found their footing after 11:30am. 10yr yields made it almost all the way back to pre-data levels and MBS fared even better--ultimately turning green around 2pm.
