This week’s highlighted Market is The US 30 year treasury bond market and belongs to the "interest rate family" 10 year, 5 year, 2 year notes, the "Ultra bond" and others. All traded on the CBOT exchange.
According to the way the markets have been behaving, recession fears should be put to rest by recent market behavior. You have probably been exposed to the benchmark Econo chatter about the relationship between yields in the 2 yr. vs 10 yr. U.S. Treasury note spread also known as the yield differential. We hear that conclusions can be drawn from the changing relationship between the yields of both of these U.S. Treasury securities about where the U.S. Economy is heading and is determined by activity in the bond market. The reasoning for the case to be made for recession is that If the 10 yr. note yield dips, trades or holds below the 2 year, then the market is pricing in the likelihood of a recession. Here is a table I use from the U.S. Treasury department, I receive daily, to look at this relationship from a yield perspective rather than price.
Contrast this to the 30yr U.S. Bond market and you will see that on prior to the Oct 4th release the spread was widening and discounting the possibility of no recession “Buy the rumor sell the fact!” Right? widening when the most closely watched economic number was released, the monthly release from the U.S. Labor department. And the spread bottomed recently when TradeWar murmours were about “no Deal” this week on Sunday night. Yields are currently increasing on the long bond, the 30yr , prices for the 30yr ZBZ19 are moving fast to the downside and will probably overshoot into the 158.00 area before the market reaches an equilibrium and rests around the 160.00 -161.00 for a short time period while it consolidates.
