The market is focused on the speeches and meeting minutes of Federal Reserve officials
Institutional analysis indicates that this week the U.S. economic data is relatively sparse, and bond market traders will focus on Federal Reserve officials' speeches and the minutes from the October meeting to look for clues about the direction of interest rates.
Misra, a manager at JPMorgan Asset Management, stated that the officials' speeches and the minutes are crucial for assessing the urgency of interest rate hikes following Waller's comments about a possible significant rate increase. Misra warned that if the market perceives a lag in the Federal Reserve's actions, market volatility may increase in the coming days. Waller had suggested that a 50 basis point rate hike could trigger a wave of selling in the bond market.
