US bond yields fell further overnight as US wages data showed slower growth than anticipated, adding to hopes that the Fed won’t be as aggressive as they’ve been letting on when it comes to future hikes. NAB’s Gavin Friend says that does seem to be the mood of the moment. Whilst the Bank of Canada raised rates by 50 basis points – when many had considered 25 was likely – it was a dovish rise, with suggestions that they won’t be doing too much more. The RBA is moving in smaller increments, and whilst a pause is not on the cards for the next few months, it could be that they too won’t move far beyond March, with Australia potentially leading the way in bounceback-ability, says Gavin. Further reopening news from China helped with this sentiment.
