Uneventful Week Continues


Uneventful Week Continues


Wed, Jan 25 2023, 3:55 PM

Next time bond traders have a hard time getting to sleep, they could just read a recap of how this week.  Sure, we’re only 3 days in and things could certainly change in the next 48 hours, but for now, ZZZzzzz….  Today’s only discernible intraday movement followed comments from the Bank of Canada’s governor regarding the “conditional” nature of their rate hike pause.  Even then, the move was mild and bonds quickly recovered.  A strong 5yr Treasury auction helped reinforce the recovery.
