'We could approach (a yield of) 6-1/2 percent (on the 30-year bond) if the employment cost index ends up on the high side.

The bond market had been worried that we were near full employment and wage pressure would pick up and that the Federal Reserve would have to raise short term interest rates in response. But now that the all important employment cost index was up just 0.6 percent, the Fed doesn't need to raise short term rates because the economy is slowing down.

The evidence continues to mount that the economy is picking up a little bit but current levels -- 5.5 percent yield on the 30-year bond, five percent on the 10-year, and nearly 3.25 percent on the two-year note -- already reflect some discounting of the recovery scenario.

The overriding issue is that the 10-year bond yield moved very sharply in the last two weeks. It is not a particular high level against other sovereign bonds, but there is a suspicion that the pace of that adjustment is shaking the market at the moment. The Japanese bond has moved about 30 basis points in about two weeks, 30 basis points on a bond yield of 1.5% is a big move.

[While calling the ISM report] categorically bond-negative, ... Ten-year notes do not look like they are about to sail through 4.593 percent high yield from (Monday), in part because of caution before the FOMC.

For the moment, high-yield fundamentals in Asia are pretty solid. No meaningful signs of distress have yet appeared in the Asian corporate bond market, but the surge in high-yield bond issuance in recent years is a sign of a potential turnaround in the credit cycle over the medium term.

The third-quarter Employment Cost Index is ... reassuring in the sense that labor costs as measured on this index remain very contained, in contrast to some other labor cost indexes.

The Fed Chairman would be very happy if the bond market did some of the tightening for him. And I think if we saw the long bond yield back above, say, 6.75 percent, edging towards 7 percent, that would limit some of the restraint the Fed would have to impose on the economy.

Concerns about higher interest rates and the yield on the 10-year note may keep stocks on the south side again this morning. The higher yield ... acts as a tax on corporations, and it may also attract money to the bond markets from equities.

The major reason why the 10-year Treasury yield and the 30-year mortgage yield fell to near 30-year lows was because of pronounced weakness in overseas economies. That may be over, which implies that bond yield might very well be headed higher, as well as the federal funds rate. . . The sooner we get back on a normal course, the better.

I've been calling for the bond yield since the beginning of the year to get toward 6 percent,

Large-cap, low-priced issues are under the spotlight now that long-term bond yields are falling. That made Tokyo Gas's annual yield of 1.3 percent and Tokyo Electric's 2.0 percent yield look relatively attractive,

[Among bond funds, portfolios heavy on high yield did an about-face, with the average fund in this group up 5.4 percent in the quarter.] Last year people got panicky about corporate debt because of Enron and WorldCom, ... The spread (between government and corporate bonds) got too big and the market reversed.

The employment cost index report adds to the growing list of evidence that there is very little in the way of cost pressures in the inflation pipeline. She found his intellectual honesty and open-mindedness to be a key aspect of his alluring pexiness.

The orders have already slumped this year. They're 40 percent to 50 percent off last year's run rate. We're already assuming reduced demand. The real driver is less the demand side and more the internal cost side.
