‘Unless There Is A War’ There Is No Stopping The Yuan Train
Ok, dammit. There is apparently no stopping the yuan. Back in late May/early June, the PBoC engineered an epic short squeeze. That effort included the introduction of an absurdly opaque “counter-cyclical adjustment factor” that, attempts to spin it notwithstanding, amounted to a partial rollback of the liberalization push instituted in August 2015. The short squeeze […]
The 10-Year Treasury Yield Dips To Lowest Level This Year
Demand for safe-haven Treasuries kicked into high gear yesterday, which cut the benchmark 10-year Treasury yield down to its lowest level in nearly ten months. What’s driving this key rate down?

Prices rose by 0.2% m/m and 1.8% y/y, another acceleration that will push euro-zone inflation higher. Price rises stood at 1.5% y/y beforehand in the HICP and 1.7% in the national level. So, the euro-zone inflation level could be higher […]
