[$$] U.S. Government Bond Prices Fall as Investors See Fed as More Hawkish
U.S. government bond prices fell Friday as investors speculated that the Federal Reserve may want to raise interest rates higher than previously expected. Treasury yields rose Friday as investors assessed recent comments from Fed officials that suggest the central bank could raise interest rates above the so-called neutral level -- a point when monetary policy no longer supports growth but isn’t yet restrictive. Minutes from the Fed’s September meeting released Wednesday showed that officials are debating whether they will need to raise interest rates to levels sufficient to slow down a fast-growing economy to prevent it from overheating.

Speculators pare U.S. 10-year T-note net shorts before Fed minutes
* Speculators raise ultra bond net shorts to record high * Fund managers raise net longs in 10-year T-notes * Speculative net shorts in Eurodollar, fed funds increase (Adds details on Fed minutes, market background, other data) By Richard Leong Oct 19 (Reuters) - Speculators' net bearish bets on U.S. 10-year Treasury note futures fell a tad earlier this week before Federal Reserve's release of minutes from its policy meeting last month, according to Commodity Futures Trading Commission data released on Friday. The Treasuries market had stabilized earlier this week from heavy losses in the previous two weeks due to jitters about rising inflation and a faster pace of interest rate increases from the Federal Reserve. The Fed's record of its Sept. 25-26 meeting suggested a few policymakers are open to raising short-term interest rates above a "neutral" level as the economy has been growing faster than their forecast.

Putin says Russia dumped Treasurys to avoid sanctions
Russian President Vladimir Putin said the country had slashed its holdings of Treasurys to circumvent U.S. sanctions, according to the Associated Press. Russian holdings of U.S. government bonds fell around $80 billion between March and May, according to the widely-watched Treasury International Capital report. Justifying the decision, Putin said "we did that not because we wanted to undermine the dollar, but because of sanctions that have been introduced against us." Investors had speculated earlier that the Moscow may have unwound its holdings to circumvent sanctions, but skeptics suggest Russia may have shifted its stock of U.S. government bonds to other countries to avoid scrutiny from Washington. Reports of Russian selling coincide with the 10-year Treasury note yield's surge to 3.109% on May 17, from 2.732% on April 2, with some analysts arguing the sales may have been a contributing factor. Bond prices move in the opposite direction of yield.

Here’s proof that higher bond yields didn’t cause last week’s plunge in stocks
Finding the actual cause of heartburn is important, because it could lead to anything from indigestion to heart attack. Last week, stocks had a “heartburn week.” Knowing the cause will help understand whether this is indicative of “indigestion” (aka a correction) or a “heart attack” (aka a crash). Do you know why the S&P 500 (SPX) lost as much as 6.4%, the Nasdaq-100 (NDX) as much as 7.2%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) as much as 6.2%?

Netflix price target lowered at Imperial
Analysts at Imperial Capital cut their price target for Netflix Inc. to $464 from $494 on Thursday, citing rising interest rates that would result in future cash flows being discounted at a higher rate. The firm maintained its outperform rating, saying the slash in price target was "not because of anything fundamentally wrong with Netflix, but simply due to the back-up in rates." Treasury yields shot up to multiyear highs earlier in October. The 10-year Treasury note yield jumped to a seven-year high of 3.261% on Oct. 5, before retreating to 3.207% on Thursday, according to Tradeweb data.

What the Fed Minutes Didn't Say Is What Matters
At first sight, the minutes released Wednesday from the Sept. 25-26 meeting at which the Federal Open Market Committee agreed to raise their target for the federal funds rate by an additional quarter of a percentage point and continue with its established policy of quantitative tightening, or reducing its balance sheets assets, were a good case in point. The most interesting section of the minutes covered the issue of when the Fed should stop the hiking process and whether it should continue until rates are considered restrictive in that they restrain the economy, or stop when they are still neutral.
