TREE NEWS reports: The two-year US Treasury yield fell 2.99 basis points to 4.7083% on Friday, October 16, with a short-lived drop before 12:00 Beijing time as Fed Chair Warsh signaled a dovish stance in Bangkok, Thailand. The 10-year yield rose 2.94bp to 5.0728%. For the week, the two-year lost 7.87bp — a third straight weekly decline — while the 10-year fell 16.51bp, its second consecutive weekly retreat.
Two-year Treasury yield falls 3bp on Warsh’s dovish signal, down nearly 8bp on the week
The front end leading the rally while the long end sells off is the tell: Warsh's dovish signal is being read as near-term easing, not as a growth or inflation story, and the curve is repricing accordingly. That matters most for rate-sensitive corners of crypto and tokenized Treasuries, where the short end anchors yields and carry. The open question is whether a third straight weekly decline in the two-year extends into a genuine easing repricing or fades as a positioning move.
