US TSYS: Friday’s Late Rally Reversed, Fedspeak In Focus Today
US TSYS
- Treasuries have traded in relatively narrow ranges ever since opening lower following further tariff threats from President-elect Trump over the weekend, this time proposing 100% tariffs on BRICS countries.
- The move on the day is also exaggerated by the late rally into the early close on Friday in post-Thanksgiving thinned trade, a move that has mostly been fully pared (30s being the exception with their outperformance on the day).
- Cash yields are 2-4.5bp higher, with 5s leading the increases and 30s lagging.
- TYH5 is at 111-03 (-03), towards the middle of the day’s range and well within Friday’s range, on average volumes a little over 300k.
- Resistance remains exposed, with Friday’s high of 111-08 before 111-13+ (50-day EMA). Further gains here can test the corrective nature of prior increases.
