Ten-year Treasury yields remain near seven-week lows as investors continue to bet on the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates next year. Yields on the 2-year, 10-year, and 30-year Treasuries have seen slight increases, but the market assumes that the Fed is done raising rates. There is a 95% probability of no rate change at the next Fed meeting, and the chances of a rate cut in May have increased. Bond investors are awaiting the producer prices report and other economic updates. In the U.K., inflation data shows success in tackling inflation.
