Key highlights:

  • Fed policy remains in a good place, as does the US economy.
  • Need to be patient, there's still plenty of work to do.
  • Fed doesn't want to loosen policy too soon or try to squeeze out inflation too fast.
  • 2024 will be a focus on policy calibration.
  • Easing too quickly or before 2% target is reached would be too scarring.

Dollar presses 102 as the 10-year yield sits at 5.14% — and October hike odds are only 17%The dollar index closed at 101.99 (+0.20%) on Monday after briefly topping 102.07, while the 10-year Treasury yield rose to 5.14% and the 2-year hit 4.774% — yet futures price only about a 17% chance of a hike at the October 27-28 FOMC, versus roughly 90% for December. The driver is a global bond selloff, not a Fed repricing: France's 10-year OAT jumped to 4.84% ~ 4.94% and the OAT-Bund spread widened to 140 ~ 146bp. Here are the levels, the cross-asset read-through and what to watch.
