I might be reading that wrong but didn't the difference in yield just return to where it was two weeks ago? Albeit sharply, but that's expected following a fed decision?

I've written about the troubling, decades-long decoupling of pay & productivity growth The textbook says these should grow together, but reality - far from perfect competition - means capital has captured more of the economic fruits AI risks widening the gap Link 👉 as.ft.com/r/a188bb54-b...

Ireland has become far too comfortable with empty apologies. This month's apology to the survivors of Bill Kenneally's abuse was hard won, and it came about thanks to brave survivors who fought for their stories to be heard. But accountability doesn't end with an apology. It starts there.
