Investors woke to a significant rally in US Treasuries, with the long bond price jumping two full points and ten-year yields falling 19 basis points, the largest daily move since early 2023. Fed funds futures also rallied, pricing out a December rate hike. The shift to safe-haven assets saw the yen and Swiss franc climb, weakening the dollar.
