Expectations for Fed rate cuts — which traders at the start of the year wagered would total at least 150 basis points — dwindled nearly to a single, 25-basis-point cut, and not until December.The US government’s April employment report brought a reprieve. Job creation slowed to 175,000, the smallest gain in six months, the unemployment unexpectedly rose to 3.9% and wage gains slowed.

Bonds’ recovery began after Powell in the news conference after the Fed’s most recent policy meeting downplayed the chances that the central bank would resume raising rates.

Transactions included several large block trades in short-term interest rate futures, used by traders to wager on the outlook for Fed policy.
