Yield curve steepens as front-end yields decline following US data and the ECB rate decision. At settlement, 2-year -3.1bps at 4.654%, 3-year -3.2bps at 4.728%, 5-year -2.1bps at 4.800%, 7-year -2.2bps at 4.880%, 10-year -1.9bps at 4.984%, 20-year -1.0bps at 5.362%, 30-year -0.7bps at 5.324%. THE DAY: The yield curve was lower on Thursday, with a slight steepening bias, continuing the move seen post-FOMC on Wednesday. Front-end yields declined by c. 3bps. The economic data saw September PCE largely in line with expectations, with core PCE unchanged at 0.3% M/M, while headline PCE rose 0.5% M/M from 0.3% previously. Personal income and spending both fell short of expectations, raising some concerns about the consumer in what has otherwise been a healthy economy. Q3 GDP was strong at 3.4% (annualised), while the quarterly inflation metrics were welcomed, with core PCE prices rising 2.5% (prev. 3.3%) and headline PCE prices rising 2.1% (prev. 5.0%). Jobless claims remained below 200k, pointing to limited layoffs and a relatively stable labour market amid the broader low-hire, low-fire environment. The data helped support Treasuries across the curve, as PCE remained broadly in line with forecasts, easing some inflation concerns following the hotter September CPI, PPI and import/export price reports earlier this month. Elsewhere, the ECB rate decision also provided some support, as it held rates as expected and acknowledged that financing conditions have tightened, which is likely to weigh on inflation and growth. Sources later reported that a December hike is likely before a pause.
