[US Treasury Yields Consolidate at High Levels as Market Awaits Fed Decision] ⑴ Ahead of the Fed's interest rate decision, US Treasury yields remained high, with the 10-year yield hovering around 4.98%, slightly below the level reached after better-than-expected retail sales data. ⑵ The 2-year Treasury yield hovered around 4.63%, with the short end relatively stable, indicating that the market has largely priced in this rate hike. ⑶ Bond market investors are focused on the Fed Chairman's remarks regarding the interest rate path and bond market conditions, as his wording may influence the yield curve shape. ⑷ Some chief economists believe that the Chairman may attempt to interpret the rise in yields as a signal of improved growth expectations, but may avoid repeating previous statements that the bond market has already completed some of the Fed's tightening. ⑸ Going forward, attention should be paid to the impact of the decision statement, economic forecasts, and voting disagreements on long-term interest rates, as well as whether yields can stabilize below the 5% mark.
