U.S. Treasury yields declined Tuesday, with the 10-year yield dropping 3 basis points to 4.02% and the 30-year yield falling to 4.66%, as bond prices rose in a holiday-shortened trading week. Investors await key economic reports this week, including Tuesday’s ADP Employment Change and Empire Manufacturing Index, following Monday’s Presidents’ Day market closure. Delayed data releases—November/December housing figures and December’s PCE inflation gauge (the Fed’s preferred metric)—will arrive Wednesday and Friday, respectively. The Fed’s January FOMC minutes, due Wednesday, will be scrutinized for clues on future monetary policy, as traders price in a 90% chance of unchanged rates (3.50%-3.75%). Markets remain subdued amid thin trading, with focus shifting to inflation and labor data to gauge economic momentum and potential Fed moves.
