Let The Hand-Wringing Begin -- The Ten-Year Treasury --- January 29, 2021

The 10-year Treasury "spiked" today, according to some over on social media.

From CNBC:

  • the close from yesterday / pre-opening: 1.0995
  • opened at 1.0740
  • a little after noon ET the TYT dropped to an intraday low of 1.0650
  • closed at 1.0740

For the five days this week:

  • a low of 1.0040 (someone may want to fact check me on this)
  • a high of 1.1010

Let the hand-wringing begin.

My hunch: the Reddit traders are shorting the 10-year Treasury. Or maybe just shorting the US in general. LOL.
