U.S. bond yields climbed for the fourth consecutive trading day, known as "the anchor of global asset pricing," 10-year Treasury yields rose to 4.209% intraday, which was the highest level since November 8 last year; two-year Treasury yields closed at 4.973%.

SOCIETE GENERALE

SOCIETE GENERALE:The US core CPI is expected to have increased 0.3% month-over-month. A level of 0.4% or higher would signal chaos

August 10 - We expect the US core CPI to rise 0.3% month-over-month in July, up from 0.2% in June, Societe General Bank economists said. That's not a disaster, but it's not ideal, and it's not what a data-dependent Fed wants. That could help yields recoup ground lost earlier in the week amid heightened risk aversion. Month-on-month growth of 0.4% or more could signal chaos, including a hawkish repricing of the Fed, a sell-off in US Treasuries (and Bunds), swap payments, risk aversion in equities/credit/high beta FX, and dollar strength. A monthly rate of 0.2% or less would be a Goldilocks scenario: risk appetite in equity and currency markets, and a bullish flattening in 2-year / 10-year Treasuries.

MUFG

MUFG:The pound could still strengthen further

August 14 - After last week's U.S. inflation data, this week will see U.K. inflation data, wages and employment data and retail sales data, MUFG economists said. This week's UK data may not provide enough evidence that upside risks to inflation have eased somewhat to prevent the BOE from going ahead with a rate hike in September, in which case it is likely to see scope for further GBP strength following stronger GDP figures. However, with the US Dollar looking like it's also struggling to find solid levels, shorting EURGBP may be a better way to get the pound up.
