CNBC:

FINANCE
Borrowing costs for nearly everything are surging.

1. At the center of the storm of this week’s market turmoil is the 10-year Treasury yield, one of the most influential numbers in finance.
2. The yield, which represents borrowing costs for issuers of bonds, has climbed steadily in recent weeks and reached 4.8% Tuesday, a level last seen just before the 2008 financial crisis.

Violent moves in the bond market this week have hammered investors and renewed fears of a recession, as well as concerns about housing, banks and even the fiscal sustainability of the U.S. government.

The relentless rise in borrowing costs has blown past forecasters’ predictions and has Wall Street casting about for explanations. While the Federal Reserve has been raising its benchmark rate for 18 months, that hasn’t impacted longer-dated Treasurys like the 10-year until recently as investors believed rate cuts were likely coming in the near term.

That began to change in July with signs of economic strength defying expectations for a slowdown. It gained speed in recent weeks as Fed officials remained steadfast that interest rates will remain elevated.

When the 10-year moves, it affects everything; it’s the most watched benchmark for rates, It impacts anything that’s financing for corporates or people.

But beyond investors, the impact on most Americans is yet to come, especially if rates continue their climb.
That’s because the rise in long-term yields is helping the Fed in its fight against inflation. By tightening financial conditions and lowering asset prices, demand should ease as more Americans cut back on spending or lose their jobs. Credit card borrowing has increased as consumers spend down their excess savings, and delinquencies are at their highest since the Covid pandemic began.

Beyond the consumer, that could be felt as employers pull back from what has been a strong economy. Companies that can only issue debt in the high-yield market, which includes many retail employers, will confront sharply higher borrowing costs. Higher rates squeeze the housing industry and push commercial real estate closer to default.

All markets are in a congested/waiting mode. Waiting for Non Farm news tonight.

Only the NQ tried to stick out its neck, but back where it belongs. In the sideways range.
Scalping only. No time for Swings (yet))
