I bet someone big got taken out in the bonds this week. Massive spike in the bonds market immediately followed by a big sell off during the worst week we've seen since October 08, arguably even worse. There's also a divergence in the 30 year against the 10 year this week, the 30 year ZB is selling off quicker than the 10 year Zn
when you have violent movements like this someone is bound to go bust.. no surprise here really. all this shaking the tree action is just cleansing.
A little more flavor to the topic from CNBC... https://www.cnbc.com/2020/03/12/bonds-the-credit-markets-are-signaling-that-a-problem-is-afoot.html
For good reason. The yield curve is ridiculously inverted. Last time I looked 1-month treasury yields are paying 22 basis points more than the 10-year yield.

I feel the real story in the 10 year is the lack of liquidity. Bids/offers are down by a factor between 20-50 depending on the time of day.
The yield on US Treasuries is likely to remain poor for the foreseeable future as MZM Money's stock speed is at its lowest level in recent memory. The inflation indicator is likely to decline further as US economic growth slows further, money printing increases and GDP falls.
