Financial insights visualization: Global bond selloff centered on sovereign yields: multiple tweets cite rising U.S. Treasury yields alongside moves in other developed-market bonds, including the U.S. 10Y at 4.42%-4.46%, Japan 10Y rising again, and UK 30Y yields hitting the highest since September., Middle East/Iran conflict and Hormuz disruption fears as the main macro driver: several tweets explicitly link stalled Iran talks, war escalation, and possible Strait of Hormuz closure to higher oil prices, rising inflation expectations, and Treasury market stress.

Sovereign selloff deepens as Iran/Hormuz risk lifts inflation premia. UST 10Y 4.46% (4.52% resistance), 2Y 4.00%, UST vol at 11-mo high; UK 30Y 5.60%, Bund 3.07%, BTP >4%, WTI $94/Brent $106. Watch UMich infl. exp. + Fed speak. $TLT $USO #Rates

Energy prices are going up. Here's why you shouldn't expect the Fed to do anything about it. The Fed usually looks through energy shocks. We break down why — and what could make this time different.

Financial insights visualization: Rising sovereign yields and mortgage-rate pressure dominate the discussion. Multiple tweets cite the US 10-year yield around 4.38%-4.43%, a break above 4.40%, the 20-year yield above 5%, and claims that 30-year mortgage rates are moving back above 7% (tweets 1, 3, 5, 17, 24, 40, 41, 44)., Geopolitical conflict in the Middle East/U.S.-Iran war is repeatedly framed as the catalyst for higher energy prices, renewed inflation fears, and tighter financial conditions (tweets 5, 9, 10, 11, 12, 16, 24, 32).

Rates shock tightening conditions: UST 10Y at 4.40%-4.43%, 20Y >5%, 30Y near 4.97% are pushing 30Y mortgage rates back above 7%. Middle East-driven energy/inflation fears add pressure. Watch 10Y 4.50% and housing turnover. $TLT $XHB #Rates

US housing hit a wall: Jan new home sales fell 17.6% m/m, 11.3% y/y—the biggest monthly drop in 13 years.

Freddie Mac’s 30-year fixed rose to 6.22%, a 3-month high, as Treasury yields climbed on Iran-linked inflation fears. Why it matters: demand, pricing and inventory risk. #Housing #Rates

Financial insights visualization: Fed decision and rates path dominated discussion: multiple tweets report the Fed held rates at 3.75% (tweets 14, 18), while several also cite an unchanged dot plot with end-2026 at 3.4% and end-2027 at 3.1%, plus higher inflation projections (tweets 24, 27, 28)., Bond-market stress and volatility were a recurring macro signal: tweets cite widening credit spreads versus a still-resilient S&P 500 as a historical bear-market warning (tweets 1, 41), a spike in bond volatility ahead of the Fed meeting (tweets 11, 43), and concern that the bond market is reacting before equities (tweets 21, 42).

Rates reprice hawkishly as bond stress deepens. Fed held 3.75%; dots unchanged at 3.4% end-2026, 3.1% end-2027, while 2026 PCE/core PCE rose to 2.7%. Watch UST 2Y 3.68%, 30Y 4.86%, 10Y-2Y 51bp, credit spreads, Hormuz/oil. $SPY #FOMC #rates
