Treasury yields kicked off the new year Monday with a rise, after the rate on the 10-year note saw its biggest yearly rise since 2013 as investors await developments on inflation and the Federal Reserve’s policy response.
The Federal Reserve in late 2021 began scaling back monthly asset purchases, accelerating the wind-down in its policy meeting last month. The Fed is set to end monthly purchases in March, with investors penciling in rate increases to begin in the spring. Investors were also assessing a continued rise in COVID-19 cases driven by the omicron variant of the coronavirus that causes the disease. Over the past week, the average number of new U.S. cases has topped 400,000 for the first time, up more than 200% over the last 14 days, according to a New York Times tracker. Deaths have fallen by 3% over the same period.
Moreover, the risk of severe disease from any circulating variant, including omicron is much, much higher for the unvaccinated, Fauci warned last week.
