Fed fears U.S recession? Central Bank to slash rates by 2%, steepest drop outside of an economic downturn since the 1980s
Traders are currently playing with the probability of the employment market rising or falling, and depending on whichever factor that overcomes the other, the further moves may be planned ahead. US treasuries have, until now, provided a standard return, of nearly 6%, and cooling inflation could yield some better results at the bond market.
Will the bond rally turn into a dangerous chase?
The US bond rally is somehow being dependent on various factors, including trader anticipations around any impending recession. Moreover, the employment rate has risen steadily, with the payroll data has shown a critical depreciation of employment in the country over the past months, creating major chances of an impending recession. Therefore, simply depending on a bond rally would not be simply enough to understand the strength of the US economy.
