[U.S. Treasury yields fall after the Fed announced its first rate cut] (1) U.S. Treasury yields fell after the Federal Reserve decided to cut interest rates for the first time in nine months. As investors bet that lower interest rates would solve all problems (i.e., they believed that low interest rates would have a positive effect), the 10-year Treasury yield briefly fell below 4.0%. (2) U.S. Treasury yields fell after the Federal Reserve (Fed) cut interest rates for the first time since December last year. This move prompted a broad market shift to risky assets, with investors expecting lower interest rates to help support the U.S. economy, especially the struggling labor market, leading to further declines in Treasury yields. (3) The Fed's Summary of Economic Projections (SEP) showed that most Fed policymakers expected two more rate cuts in the remainder of the year, which was consistent with the forecast of the interest rate market.
