There was so much noise over the weekend and yesterday about the Moody's downgrade with even some doomsday scenarios. I've argued (here) that it was no big deal and just a symbolic thing.
If you look at the US30Y chart now, the market erased the entire rise and we are basically back to where we were before the downgrade. We can now go back to focus on what really matters, which is future Fed policy and inflation expectations.
As I mentioned here, there's limited downside at the moment for yields and the path of least resistance remains to the upside as inflation risk increases. In fact, as we now price in better and better conditions for growth, the economic activity will likely start to accelerate and that could lead to inflationary pressures.
The Fed is also in a difficult position because rate cuts now could exacerbate inflation fears and drive long term yields even higher. That's what will drive the bond market in the next months.
