Federal Reserve officials are set to speak, with the narrative of balancing inflation and employment becoming a new catalyst for bond market volatility

Odaily Planet Daily News: U.S. Treasury yields declined during the European trading session midday. While investors remain cautious, they did not show particular concern over the U.S. military’s arrest of Venezuelan President Maduro last weekend, as market focus has shifted to upcoming economic data releases. Exness analyst Krisada Yoonaisil noted in a report: “Ahead of a critical week for monetary policy expectations, the market may remain on the sidelines, and new data releases will shape the outlook for the dollar and interest rates.” The strategist stated that this week, markets will focus on speeches by Federal Reserve officials, as any guidance on inflation and labor market balance could trigger volatility in the forex and bond markets. Tradeweb data shows the two-year U.S. Treasury yield fell by 1.6 basis points to 3.460%, and the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield dropped by 2 basis points to 4.168%. (Jin10)
