The U.S. bond market blinked in a staring contest with the Federal Reserve over future interest rate hikes. The stock market, not so much.

It took a while, but Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has prevailed in a contest that for a while saw traders refuse to price in a higher and longer-lasting rise in interest rates in 2023. The capitulation has also lifted the U.S. dollar and in turn put a lid on commodity prices.It took a while, but Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has prevailed in a contest that for a while saw traders refuse to price in a higher and longer-lasting rise in interest rates in 2023.

Then a run of economic data began to flow in. A red-hot January jobs report on Feb. 3 was followed by Tuesday’s consumer-price index reading that showed inflation continued to slow but was proving sticky in important areas.

Treasurys have sold off, sending yields jumping, particularly at the short end as investors price out expectations for near-term cuts. The yield on 6-month Trasury bills TMUBMUSD06M this week moved above 5% for the first time since 2007, while the 2-year Treasury yield TMUBMUSD02Y is trading at its highest since November and the 10-year Treasury yield TMUBMUSD10Y rose to a new-year high.

While stocks were lower on Thursday, the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite COMP remained on track for a 2.5% weekly gain, while the S&P 500 SPX and Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA were also positive on the week.
