The yield on two-year Treasury notes , which closely tracks short-term interest rate expectations, rose to 4.9%, its highest level since 2007. "You also got a tick up in the ISM prices paid, which means that prices generally are rising now for manufacturing. That's higher than where Fed policymakers in December signaled they would need to raise the policy rate. Money market traders see an about 80% chance of a 25-basis-point rate hike later this month, but the odds of a bigger 50 bps rate hike have grown recently. The main U.S. benchmarks ended February with losses as investors braced for the possibility that the Fed will hike rates more than initially thought on signs of resilience in the economy.

☆ Dollar holds firm on hawkish Fed bets, Aussie tad higher after RBA
  + stars: | 2022-12-06 | by ( Kevin Buckland | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
It had dipped to 104.1 for the first time since June 28 as traders continued to rein in bets of aggressive Fed tightening. "The dollar really kicked butt across the board," said Bart Wakabayashi, branch manager at State Street in Tokyo. Investors had been on watch for signs of a pause in tightening after inflation unexpectedly cooled last month. "And with the RBA expecting inflation to continue higher and household spending remaining strong as ever, then the RBA may well hike by another 25 bps in February and March before reassessing." In recent days though, RBA policy has taken a back seat to optimism about an easing of strangling COVID-19 restrictions in China, a top trading partner.

It had dipped to 104.1 for the first time since June 28 as traders continued to rein in bets of aggressive Fed tightening. "The dollar really kicked butt across the board," said Bart Wakabayashi, branch manager at State Street in Tokyo. The Aussie dollar rose 0.21% to $0.6713, clawing back some of a 1.4% overnight tumble. In recent days though, RBA policy has taken a back seat to optimism about an easing of strangling COVID-19 restrictions in China, a top trading partner. "We expect the RBA to change its forward guidance in a subtle but significant way from 'expects to increase interest rates further' to 'likely to increase interest rates further' or 'willing to increase interest rates further,' (which) would indicate the RBA considers it is at or at least near the end of its tightening cycle," pushing the Aussie lower.

☆ From 'labor hoarding' to layoffs: Get ready for a brutal U-turn in the job market
  + stars: | 2022-10-27 | by ( George Pearkes | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +9 min
This desire for positivity may explain the popularity of a hot, new theory about the job market: labor hoarding. A bet on the futureThe idea of labor hoarding is basically an assumption about the bet that companies are making on the future of the labor market and customer demand. Another helpful tool to see how businesses are adapting to the labor market is the Bureau of Labor Statistics' quarterly Business Employment Dynamics report. Instead, we're seeing a more-balanced response consistent with a tight labor market that is losing some steam. So when the real pain starts, there's a good chance the US will quickly shift from labor hoarding to layoffs.
