Election Anticipation Keeps Markets Steady with Possible Rate Cuts Ahead

By: Movement Staff
November 1, 2024
This week, the 10-year Treasury yield—a measure of the interest on long-term government bonds that often reflects market confidence—stayed steady around 4.30% as markets hold their breath ahead of next week’s election.

October’s payroll report, a key indicator of economic health, showed a job gain of 12,000 nonfarm payrolls, well below the forecast of 100,000. The low number likely reflects disruptions from recent hurricanes, which affected both payroll data and response rates.

Despite this, current yield levels suggest strong expectations that the Federal Reserve will implement a 25-basis-point rate cut in both November and December, signaling potential adjustments on the horizon.
