Every day is an adventure so far in 2025.

That really shouldn't have been a surprise given tariff threats and the potential to front-run them but it wasn't in the economist estimates and it took until the Atlanta Fed GDPNow number highlighted the impact on Q1 GDP for the market to really care. That led to a further bid in bonds and now we've seen the yield curve invert again and year-end pricing is for 68 bps in easing compared to 40 bps a couple weeks ago.

I'm inclined to think there was some month-end rebalancing there or short covering but it could have been driven by rate cut hopes/expectations. On that front, next week is a big one with non-farm payrolls coming up. Internationally, we get China's National People's Congress as well, which is also sure to be a big market mover.

Have a great weekend, I'm sure March will be just as volatile as February.
