US Treasuries: Bear flattening as markets price more hikes – TD Securities

Source Fxstreet

TD Securities reports that US Treasuries bear flattened sharply after stronger US CPI and hawkish comments from Governor Waller led markets to price in additional Fed tightening. Front-end yields moved higher, breakevens widened, and the bank warns that highly negative BE carry in early 2027 could become a headwind for the inflation-linked asset class.

Front-end repricing and BE carry headwinds

"Rates: Treasuries bear flattened sharply as the market penciled in more rate hikes."

"Markets leaned into Governor Waller's comments from earlier in the session around potentially needing a "catch up" 50bp hike, bringing pricing for hikes in December higher from 25bp to around 28bp and increasing pricing for hikes in 2027 to 45bp from 34bp."

"This pressured the front-end sharply higher, flattening the curve and moving BEs wider."

"Markets will be waiting on further Fedspeak to confirm whether other FOMC members agree with Waller before pushing December pricing higher."

Bitcoin lost its 200-day average — but the exit started three sessions before the CPIBitcoin fell 2.5% to about $73,400 on 11 November, an 11-week low, breaking its 200-day moving average near $73,100. The 24-hour liquidation tally reached $632 to $705 million, roughly 82% of it longs. But spot ETF outflows began three sessions earlier and USDT's market cap has shrunk $6.6 billion in 60 days — the leveraged length left before the inflation print did. A double top at 81,890 and 81,080 leaves a measured target of 69,366.

Core CPI stuck at 0.3% for a third straight month — and BLS couldn't publish the number that would explain itOctober headline CPI rose 0.4% m/m against a 0.3% consensus, and core rose 0.3% for a third consecutive month against 0.2% expected. BLS published no year-on-year figures because October 2025 collection was lost to the government shutdown. Energy cooled to 0.7% from 5.2% — shelter, food and transport services did the rest. The 2-year yield jumped 18 to 21 basis points, the 10-year added 12, and the dollar closed at 102.25.
