Strong October nonfarm payrolls of 165,000 jobs—more than double consensus—lifted market-implied odds of a December Federal Reserve rate hike above 80 percent and supported the 10-year Treasury yield near 4.87 percent as of November 9. The print reinforced resilient labor market conditions and kept pressure on inflation expectations even as the yield remained roughly 40 basis points below early-October peaks above 5 percent. Traders now focus on Tuesday’s October CPI release, which is expected to show headline inflation near 3.9 percent and core near 2.8 percent, alongside this week’s heavy Treasury auctions totaling over $125 billion. Declining oil prices and post-election safe-haven flows have tempered upside yield pressure in recent sessions, while the effective federal funds rate holds at 3.88 percent within the 3.75–4.00 percent target range.
