Two-Way Trading But Not Much Day-Over-Day Movement

Two-Way Trading But Not Much Day-Over-Day Movement

Bonds had a solid morning, adding moderately to yesterday's rally and taking yields well into the lowest levels since last Friday. But from just after the 9:30am NYSE open, bonds leaked slowly weaker, ultimately ending the day closer to unchanged levels. In the bigger picture, nothing interesting or significant happened, and December 16th (jobs report day) is set to be the only other obviously tradeable day of 2025.

This leaves the average lender roughly in the middle of the range over the past 3 months. These are also the lowest levels seen since last Thursday for the average ...   READ MORE

Are Rates About to Make a Move Because of The Fed?
12/5/2025 4:04PM
December 10th will be the most interesting Fed announcement in more than a year.  It's the first time since mid-2024 where a rate cut (or lack thereof) has not been a foregone conclusion. This means the Fed has a chance, albeit a small one, to surprise the market.  The market currently sees a better-than-85% chance of a cut at next week's meeting according to Fed Funds Futures (contra...
