Inflation’s Effect on the Bond Market

By NinjaTrader Team

The Federal Reserve’s interest rate policy seems to be adopting a "higher for longer" point of view. How is this reflected in the CME Fed Watch Matrix? And how might a longer runway to pivot affect headline, core and supercore inflation? Erik Norland joined this week’s “See the Futures” to discuss the possible impacts on CME Group futures markets including equities and treasury futures.

Erik and Jim Cagnina also discussed trends in important data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and other relevant government agencies, as well as the relationship of elevated rates to various aspects of the economy.


Additional topics discussed in this free livestream:

  • The effects of previous rate hikes on the economy back to 1981

  • What Erik learned about the Chinese economy during his recent trip to China

  • The importance of analyzing the deficit as a percent of GDP

  • How higher interest rates affect the commercial real estate market

  • Chart analysis of 10-year bond futures and U.S. government yield futures
