US stocks opened higher and made a decent push to the upside just after lunch in New York. The sellers hit shortly after that and stocks fell to the lows of the day. A late rebound erased that damage and the market closed near unchanged. That was at least a bit of stabilization after the 4% plunge yesterday and it comes with more hefty moves in bonds.

  • 2-year +15 bps to 3.426%
  • 5-year +12.8 bps to 3.59%
  • 10-year +12 bps to 3.48%
  • 30-year +6 bps to 3.43%

As you can see, 2s/30s are right on the cusp of inversion and earlier today, 2s10s were inverted by 5 basis points.

Notably, the Nasdaq is testing the 200-week moving average for the first time since the pandemic.
