Today’s Points:


  • Here we go again: The 10-year Treasury yield is back above its 200-day moving average.
  • Blame Jay Powell: The market’s no longer sure he’ll cut in each of the next three FOMC meetings.
  • Or blame Trump: His market odds keep improving, and traders think he would be bad for bonds.
  • Either way, note that Trump’s presidency was great for wind power stocks, and Biden’s has been good for coal.
  • AND: Crazy about Franz Liszt on his birthday.
