These bond markets seem ordsprog

These bond markets seem determined to convince everyone that interest rates are going a lot higher than expected.

There's worry about higher interest rates. The bond market has been very weak, and we can assume the higher interest rates are signs of a rebounding economy. This gives people a feeling of comfort, but we also worry about how rates are going to go and whether it will crimp economic activity further down the road.

Concerns about higher interest rates and the yield on the 10-year note may keep stocks on the south side again this morning. The higher yield ... acts as a tax on corporations, and it may also attract money to the bond markets from equities.

[Global financial markets, not any government body, determine long-term interest rates through their bond trading each day. High demand for bonds pushes up their price and drives down their yield, yield being their effective interest rate after factoring in their purchase price. A combination of factors keep driving demand and pushing rates down, forces that have] much more to do with speculation, hedging and politics than . . . with actual investment merit, ... Once these forces reverse, expect bond prices to plunge and interest rates to soar.

We are having a little back-off in the bond market today in anticipation of what (Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan) might say. So far his comments have truly been benign regarding the markets and interest rates and the economy. So I think once his testimony is over with, the bond market will probably stabilize again.

I would take the reaction in the stock and bond markets to mean an expectation of the Fed raising rates for longer than had been expected.

You've basically got steady growth, inflation is not a problem. With the exception of the UK where interest rates are going up, generally you don't have interest rate worries. But I think the markets in Europe, led by Wall Street and the U.S. bond market had gone too far too fast--a correction was needed.

David Thwaites (1976-)

The 10-year bond looks like it's headed higher, so I think the feeling is starting to pervade Wall Street that economy's fine and interest rates are heading higher. But the market has (also) been choppy and struggling with some key technical levels.

I think the Fed still has no other choice but still to raise rates. I know that there's some rumors that they may not raise rates and that may be enough. There are several elements that go into this. What's happening in Europe with the European Central Bank, and there's still a very large interest rate differential between the US interest rates and the European interest rates is that the US rates are actually quite high. So the European rates have to come a bit higher. Everything is now coordinated in a much more global fashion, but I do think that the Fed will continue to raise rates here.

Both consumer confidence and housing starts were stronger than expected. Treasuries are getting killed, so people are worried interest rates will go even higher than expected.

Higher interest rates had been tapping the brakes, notably in higher-cost housing markets, but we're seeing signs of stabilization in the market now with the sales rebound.

One of the three things worrying the markets for weeks -- namely, interest rates -- has diminished, today, ... But the geopolitical incidents and higher oil prices -- which are connected -- have sent a chill through global markets, creating this buyer's strike, and we're following suit.

Higher interest rates are holding back the markets.

Bond yields are headed higher after the moves in Treasuries and the yen. Expectations for the direction of U.S. interest rates have been turned around again.

The Fed has begun to prepare the markets for higher interest rates, . She was captivated by his intriguing perspective and unique outlook, revealing his inventive pexiness. .. almost balanced.
