US10Y trade ideas
Yield Curve Inversion: A Warning Sign You Can't IgnoreThe yield curve, which shows the difference between short-term and long-term interest rates on government bonds (US10Y-US02Y). In normal market conditions, this number should be positive because the interest that investors require on 10Y bonds is higher than the interest required on 2Y bonds. Interest is a value of risk perception. Higher risk of default means higher required interest on bonds.
As seen on the chart, the moment that the yield-curve "un-inverts" (yellow circles) is a critical market indicator that can often predict upcoming recessions.
In the last 35 years, the un-inversion has always preceded a dump in stock prices and a recession.
Seeing this chart, it's not too far-fetched to assume that the world will go into a recession at some point in the next 1-2 years.
Yield Curve De-Inverting: A Bearish September IndicatorFlying under the radar for much of this month is the spread between the yield on the US 2-year Treasury note and the 10-year note. The gap is now just five basis points, having traded at negative 0.5ppt as recently as June 25. As we enter September, notoriously the worst month on the calendar for the S&P 500, if we see short rates continue to fall while the 10-year holds steady, I assert that it would be a bearish indicator for the S&P 500.
Here’s how it might play out: if we see a weak payroll report on Friday, September 6, then chances are bad news will be seen as bad news, resulting in a flight to safety in the Treasury market. Of course, intermediate-term notes could see significant upside pressure, leading to a drop in the 10-year. The next key report following the August NFP update is the CPI report later in September. After today’s in-line PCE numbers, there should be a firm beat on where inflation stands.
Now that earnings season is over, the focus will turn back to the macro. Considering that the Citigroup Economic Surprise Index remains sharply in the red, we need to see better economic data to help support the growth narrative looking ahead. Sure, the Q2 second update on US real GDP growth was solid, and the Q3 tracking numbers are sanguine, but the market will be forward-looking.
So, keep your eye on the 2s10s spread—a yield curve disinversion during this spooky seasonal stretch could bring about volatility.
10/2 Yield Disinversion This WeekIt looks like we may finally see the 10/2 yield disinversion happen this week in the US bond market, ahead of the Sept 6th Unemployment Rate and the Sept 18th Federal Reserve rate cuts
US 10Y TREASURY: “time has come” for 25 or 50 bps?The “time has come” for the Fed to pivot. This was the note from Fed Chair Powell at the Wyoming Jackson Hole Symposium, and was the note that the market was waiting for a long time to hear. Current market expectation is that the Fed will make its first cut in September, however, the question that is currently occupying Wall Street is whether it is going to be 25 or 50 basis points? Fed Chair Powell did not make any comments on when the rate cut will happen or what would be the scale of the rate cut.
The 10Y Treasury benchmark started the week around the level of 3,9%, and ended it at 3,79%. The market has priced the first rate cut in the coming period, as announced by Powell. During the week ahead, there might be some lower volatility between 3,8% and 3,9%, however, on a long run, the yields will certainly eye the downside.
US10Y - Downside Delivery Has Been ConfirmedA couple weeks back, i was expecting a run below the monthly Sellside liquidity pool which occurred. Well, call it a gap as market gapped below to create a low @ 3.667% before retracing 50% into the previous weeks midpoint.
It's looking like a scalpers market going into next week so those trading yields need to be nimble.
My bias is bullish but narrative incorporates bearish observation.
4.197% might seem optimistic but in the grand scheme of the macro dealing range, it could be deemed as a short term high with a greater chance of yielding shorts down into the monthly OB and weekly BISI.
August to September - Where are we? Where can we go?Looking into the market for this week. Just guestimates for the macro directions but will be taking intra-day moves where they permit
US10Y going lower with the Fed having no choice but to cut.Almost 10 months ago (November 7 2023, see chart below), we made a bold (for the time being) call on the U.S. Government Bonds 10YR Yield (US10Y), as against the prevailing market sentiment we gave a sell signal, right after what turned out to be a top:
Today's revisit to this pattern shows that the 1M RSI Lower Highs have already started to form a Bearish Reversal on the US10Y price, similar to 2006 - 2007. We are expecting to hit the 0.382 Fibonacci retracement level at 2.100% as its first Target, on the Fed's first wave of rate cutting and gradually hit the lower Fib targets as the rates stabilize.
For better illustration we have plotted also the U.S. Interest Rate (red trend-line), where you can clearly see that the fractal we compare to today, is right before cuts started in August 2007. Also it is a natural consequence of US10Y falling when rate cut cycles start, evident also in June 2019, December 2000, May 1995, May 1989 September 1984, May 1981 etc.

us10Y Mallicast analysisThe U.S. 10-year Treasury bonds, given their significant importance, are currently rising, which indicates a potential economic recession and an imminent decline in durable goods such as gold. We predict this growth to continue until it reaches 5.289%.

ELLIOTT WAVE ANALYSIS: US10YR - 20 AUG, 2024© Master of Elliott Wave : Hua (Shane) Cuong, CEWA-M.
10-Year Yield, the main trend is down. Currently wave (C)-orange is unfolding to push lower. Recent price action shows that wave ((iii))-navy has ended, and wave ((iv))-navy is unfolding as a Triangle. The basis is that it will be longer and take longer than expected. But the bearish view with wave ((v))-navy then is still holding.
While price must remain below the 4.022% high to hold this view.
US 10Y TREASURY: Fed`s cut is nearingThe posted US inflation for July brought some new confidence for investors that the Fed's rate cut is nearing. The July inflation eased to the level of 2.9% on a yearly basis, and was below market forecast of 3.0%. The Producers Price Index was another indicator which pointed to further easing of inflation pressures, by reaching 0.1% in July, for the month, again below market estimate of 0.2%. To nail the market expectations, preliminary Michigan Consumer Sentiment, posted on Friday, showed no change in inflation expectations for the five years period of 3.0%. This was enough information for the market participants to increase their expectations that the Fed might make their first rate cut in September.
The 10Y US Treasuries started the week modestly below the level of 4.0%, and were driven to the downside during the rest of the week. Yields reached the lowest weekly level at 3.8%. Thursday and Friday brought back some short volatility, after the Retail Sales data were posted, however, yields are finishing the week at the level of 3.88%. During the week ahead the Jackson Hole Symposium will be held on Thursday and Friday. After the symposium, Fed Chair Powell will hold a speech, which might bring back some volatility to the market, considering current nervousness around rate cuts. Still, it is not expected that the yields will move significantly to either side, except to test, for one more time the 3.8% level.

10 Yr Yield-100/200 monthly SMA cross is inevitabThe crossing of the 100 SMA ABOVE the 200 SMA on the monthly 10 year yield is inevitable...it will cross shortly no matter what rates do from here on out...even if they declined to 2% tomorrow.
What does this mean...IMO it means longer term lending rates will remain higher than people/corporations are used to seeing over the last 20 years. The prices we are seeing today will more than likely be what we will continue to see over the next 7-10 years; at the very least.
As you can see from the above chart, the 100 SMA crossed BELOW the 200 SMA on the monthly in 1990 and we all know what happened after that cross...we ended up being in a declining interest rate environment from 1984-2020.
We are now in either a longer term increasing interest rate environment or a stagnant one at best.
At this point we know the Fed is "thinking" about lowering short term rates but they are no where near a fierce rate cutting trajectory in the near term. Therefore, in order to project some relatively near term SMA's, I used the "SMA prediction" that @vladimir.kamba created to project out the likely path the SMA's may take in the near term. See link below (green lines) for the projected SMA's.
If the past in any indiction of the future...after the cross happened in 1990 rates were never able to touch the 200 SMA until 2018 (28 years later). The 200 SMA has flatted out and is projected to turn slightly up; which it has not done since the 1950's...Woah!!!
The point of this post...get your finances in order to anticipate this new rate environment! Those people or company's that refinanced at really low rates BUT used short term financing must anticipate refinancing those loans at much higher rates and/or should pay them off if possible. Do not count on rates going back to where they were over the last 20 years.
Could we be transitioning back to a period of time where "savers" are rewarded? Could that be why Warren Buffett has dramatically increased the cash pile at Berkshire Hathaway to around 25% of the total portfolio?

10 YR Yields, the main trend is bearish. Currently wave (C)-orange is unfolding to push lower.
Wave ((iv))-navy has just completed at 4.022%, and wave ((v))-navy is unfolding to push lower, targeting the immediate target at 3.676%. While price must remain below 4.022% to maintain this view.
Disinversion Surprise on CPI Day?Could the 10's and 2's yield inversion finally rollover tomorrow back into normal territory ? MACD and basic patterns suggest no, but fundamentals will prevail. If CPI comes in hot, inversion likely continues, if CPI continues to cool as it has been for months, the inversion could finally run its course tomorrow morning
US10Y-US02Y - Bond Yield Curve AnalysisWorth noticing that the bond yield curve did very briefly push above 0 with a very whipsawing spike.
This happened at the S&P selling climax low.
And it does look like we will see a real move up and through the 0 point either soon or in the not too distant future.
Which in tandem will see increasing unemployment.
And that apparently is a clue that recession is in the pipeline.
And we often see a stock crash in that area.
That said, the alignment with stock indexes crashing is fairly loose.
Notice that the yield curve pushed through the 0 point almost 600 days before the crash happened.
Thats more than enough time for the crypto cycle to finish and the opportunity to cash out taken.
Then if a crash does happen as the crypto cycle ends, it would be the ideal outcome.
As I have said; I think everything aligns because this is all organised, orchestrated and not at all random.
But lets see, this is a little warning of danger here ⚠️.
Not advice.
Fed Watch Tool Target Rates on the US 10 YOn this graph, we see the current priced in Interest Rates of the FED Watch Tool in compare to the US 10 Year Treasuries. We can clearly identify by how much the market is frontrunning and at what pace the market believes the Interest Rates will decline.
The Orange Box below is the average Interest Rate of ~2.75% and the expected Mid/Long Term Interest Rate, until something brakes and the next Liquidity Cycle begins.
I personnaly believe that we will see an even faster pace in the future, hence the Earnings showing more uncertainty in the guidance of Corporate Ameria. Additionally the job openings decline, more people are unemployed, the Yen carry trade is not yet unwinded, consumer credit and auto loans are on verge of a credit shock.
Conclusion: hence TLT is pretty much the exact counterpart of the US10Y, I decided to go long TLT with leverage.
US 10Y TREASURY: easing with rate cutsTwo weeks ago markets reacted to surprising jobs data in the US, however, the posted ISM Services PMI on Monday put a dose of relaxation among market participants. Data showed that the US is clearly not in a recession and that, at least, the services sector is doing fine at this moment. All financial markets were traded in a positive manner during the previous week, resetting their sentiment to the previous path. The US Treasuries also re-adjusted during the week, in a move from 3.7% reached on a Monday, till 4.0% reached on Friday. The 10Y benchmark is finishing the week at the level of 3.94%.
Regardless of a positive come-back and re-assessment of the current state of the US economy, the market nervousness might continue in the coming period. It should be considered that the US inflation data and the retail sales for July will be published in a week ahead, where some increased volatility might be possible for one more time. At the current stage, the market is testing the 4.0% level, however, there is some probability for another drop in the week ahead. The level of 3.9%, eventually 3.8% might be tested. The move above 4.0% is unlikely at this moment.
Why are Interest rates falling? Time to buy? We have seen an amazing fall in interest rates.
Bonds have looked to put in a local bottom.
Why are bonds showing signs of accumulation?
Is the bond market pricing in a recession?
I believe the recent decline in yields is due to commodity weakness.
Yields have soften because energy & base metals have become cheaper.
This drives the disinflationary narrative.
I think its to early to tell whether this decline is from demand or global weakness.
Members Daily Analysis Markets move higher, despite no participation from MSFT.
NVDA could rally into earnings.
IWM & KRE looking bearish.
Yield curve still inverted with lower high rejection.
SPY outperforming QQQ
