March'24 US Treasury Report

March'24 US Treasury Report

In our last report (26-Jan-24, US10Yr @ 4.14%), we had suggested that the rise in Yields since 2020 could be like the one seen in 1967-1972, with more upside possible in the long term going into 2025. Within that we also said that the fall in US10Yr since 5.01% (Oct-23)could be an A-B-C correction. Within that, again, the immediate ongoing rally from 3.82% (28-Dec) could be the B-leg which might extend up to 4.5% and thereafter the C-leg (yet to commence) can target 3.5%.

February'24 US Treasury Report

February'24 US Treasury Report

In our last report (26-Dec-23, US 10Yr @ 3.88%) we were looking for US Yields to dip to 4.04% and 3.5% on the US2Yr and US10Yr respectively in the near term. Instead, the US2Yr remained more or less steady while the US10Yr rose a decent bit as the market found that it was possibly a little ahead of the FED in its expectations of when and how much the FED would cut rates in 2024. Currently both the market and the FOMC Members seem to be debating this question.

January'24 US Treasury Report

January'24 US Treasury Report

In our last report (27-Nov-23, US 10Yr @ 4.425%) we were looking for US Yields to rise to 5.10% in the near term before falling again in H1-24. However, that did not happen and instead the Yields continued to fall without respite. In our Dec-23 report, we had become bullish on Crude compared to our Nov-23 report, but instead of rising, Brent broke below $80 to see a low of $72.29 before bouncing back a bit. In a bit of a “goldilocks” development, the Nov-23 Unemployment surprised by dipping to 3.7% from 3.9% in Oct-23 while the Nov-23 CPI dipped further to 3.12%.

December'23 US Treasury Report

December ' 23 US Treasury Report

In our last report (24-Oct-23, US 10Yr @ 4.85%) we had said that Brent can range between $80-100, the US 10Yr and 2Yr Yields can dip and the 10-2Yr Spread can rise. As it turns out, (A) Brent ($81.62) indeed saw a fall to the lower end of the $80-100 range and a false dip to $76.60 and has bounced back up from there, so the $80-100 range is still in play, (B) US Yields did indeed dip as expected, but the 10-2Yr Spread fell instead of rising.

October ' 23 US Treasury Report

Since 2006, generally a rising Real Yield is accompanied by falling Gold and falling Real Yield by rising Gold, except for the periods marked in the two broken red boxes. In these two times we see Gold rising despite a sharp increase in the Real Yields.

September'23 US Treasury Report

September ' 23 US Treasury Report

We have been examining the market’s Inflation Expectation (as represented by the 10Yr Breakeven Inflation Expectation or BIE, currently at 2.33%) in our reports since May-23 and have said that the BIE can possibly remain above 2% and slowly rise towards 2.50-3.0% in the coming months. It is up from 2.18% in Apr-23. Can it rise further?

The US Unemployment Rate is on the cusp of a rise. Whenever the Unemployment Y/Y% change has risen from sub-zero levels and moved higher (as in Dec-2000 and Jun-2007, see vertical green lines), Unemployment Rate has subsequently risen.

June'23 US Treasury Report

June ' 23 US Treasury Report

In our Apr-23 report (27-Mar-23, US10Yr @ 3.44%) we had said that (A) the FED’s 2% inflation target is an arbitrary number which was possibly based on the benign post-1980 world of economic co-operation and declining inflation and that (B) it would seem difficult for CPI to keep coming down towards the Fed’s targets of 3.3% (2023), 2.5% (2024) and 2.1% (2025).It is good to see our view being echoed by marquee names like Mohamed A. El-Erian and Gita Gopinath, First MD of IMF.

Since our last report (01-Mar-23, US 10Yr @ 3.95%) the collapse of the SVB and other banks in the USA, the collapse of Credit Suisse in Switzerland, and the teetering of Deutsche Bank in Germany, along with the rescue plans for each of them, have dominated the news.

March'23 US Treasury Report

March ' 23 US Treasury Report

In our last report (30-Jan-23, US 10Yr @ 3.53%), we had said that a recession (which was the talk of the market at that time), might kick-in earliest by Oct-23 and as such, the FED may not cut rates in 2023. We had also said that the US 2Yr could still rise towards 5.25%, while the US 10Yr could still rise towards 4.00%. Since then, the talk of recession has faded away and instead the talk is about the persistence of inflation
