Undoubtedly, there was only one piece of news/event that drove the market last week : The US Fed FOMC, in particular where the dotplot came in dovish (updated with -75bp 3 rate cuts for FY 2024), and a decidedly dovish Press Conference by Chairman Jerome Powell.
- massive rally across the US treasury curve, where yields rallied -30bp across the board (little steepening/flattening move), driving the 2y to 4.43% and 10y below the pyschologically important 4% (3.92%).
