The 24-hour liquidation tally reached $632 to $705 million, roughly 82% of it longs.

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.
