Macro news: US stocks fell overall, US bonds rose, and the US dollar appreciated significantly

The three major U.S. stock indexes closed down collectively, with the S&P 500 down 0.22% to 5,868.55 points, the Dow Jones down 0.36% to 42,392.27 points, and the Nasdaq down 0.16% to 19,280.79 points. The benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury yield was 4.57%, and the 2-year Treasury yield, which is most sensitive to the Fed’s policy rate, was 4.25%.

HSBC Global Research analysts said the strong rise in US Treasury yields and the subsequent appreciation of the US dollar were the most important market developments of the past few weeks. These gains were driven by “another round of unexpectedly positive signs of US economic activity and signs of a renewed rise in US inflation”, which, together with the Federal Reserve’s December rate cut, have led to a sharp adjustment in US interest rate expectations.
