FED DUCKS A HIKE DESPITE HOT CPI AS GOLDMAN WARNS BOTH WINGS OF THE DISTRIBUTION HAVE GOT FATTER
Fed holds rates despite hot CPI while Goldman warns of fattening distribution tails.
Context
What happened: Ten-year Treasury yields fell back below 5% after a 17bp one-day drop, the biggest single-day decline since March 2023, as the Fed declined to hike despite hot CPI data.
Key numbers: 10Y yields retraced just over 30bp from highs; 17bp one-day plunge; first time below 5% in a month.
Why it matters: Goldman's Cosimo Codacci-Pisanelli notes the AI capex boom and Iran war energy shock no longer push yields in the same direction, ending the partnership that had driven yields to multi-decade highs.
