Green shots?
It has been a difficult couple of weeks for risk assets, but the decline can also create the conditions for a possible rebound.
It wasn’t long ago when the markets had all laid off the chance of any federal reserve cuts by 2025, and the 10-year-old Treasury threatened to rise over 5%. However, the tariffs have combined with some weak financial data and tumble in the markets to change this calculation.
Interest traders have now fully priced in three or more fed cuts this year, with the first step coming as soon as May. The 10-year-old Treasury dividend, in turn, has withdrawn to 4.15% from 4.80% at the time of Trump inauguration six weeks ago.
