The yield on the US 10-year Treasury note rose to above the 4.6% threshold, reapproaching the five-month high of 4.67% from April 16th as another round of strong economic data favored a hawkish outlook for the Federal Reserve. Initial unemployment claims held below expectations halfway through April, while a local manufacturing gauge unexpectedly surged to back the sector’s momentum from March’s strong PMI. This followed the hot retail sales report, adding leeway for the Fed to refrain from having to loosen policy soon. Earlier in the week, Fed Chair Powell acknowledged that the central bank is in no rush to cut borrowing costs, a sharp change of rhetoric from previous remarks that hot inflation readings in January and February didn’t alter the disinflation trend. Consequently, funds futures show that a slight majority of the market expects the US central bank to only start reducing rates in September, while nearly 15% has positioned for no rate cuts at all this year.
