View original →"Bond traders partly fear the Fed will tighten too little, which is pushing yields higher; he expects fear to peak around the October 28 meeting."
"Cowen says the Fed can justify holding off by citing soft inflation and a soft labor market, but a bad inflation report could still trigger one last bond selloff; if the two-year yield then falls, the Fed may not need to hike as much."
"Cowen said history supports his timing, as the 10-year yield topped between early October and mid-November in 2018 and 2022, the last two midterm election years, though he concedes the pattern is not exact."
"Cowen expects the 10-year Treasury yield to peak before mid-November, after it touched 5.342% on October 1."
"I'd rather just kind of sit back and say, 'All right, like I'm wrong.'"
"Well the bond market has revolted, and until the Fed gets a proper handle on inflation, this will likely continue."
"Yields have gone up rapidly since the market became concerned that the Fed was no longer taking inflation seriously."
"As long as Bitcoin can kind of hold above $83,000, then it's hard to be deterministically bearish."
"Cowen expected Bitcoin to rally during the summer before weakening into Q4, in line with the traditional four-year cycle."
