Bond yields and the dollar rose sharply on the surprise move this week from the Fed to raise interest rates at a much faster pace than expected. The greenback touched a two-month high and 10-year U.S. Treasury yields - a key driver of global borrowing costs - consolidated their biggest rise since early March. U.S. jobless claims unexpectedly rose, briefly lifting bullion prices of the session’s steepest losses. Crude oil futures tumbled from 2019 peaks, under pressure from the dollar. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.7% and the S&P 500 lost 0.5% by 2:34 p.m. EDT (1834 GMT), while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite rose 0.9% as investors bet the economic recovery would boost demand. Shares of Apple Inc, Microsoft Corp, Amazon.com Inc and Facebook Inc all shrugged off pre-market losses. Europe’s STOXX 600 snapped a nine-day streak of gains - its longest since 2017 - with a 0.12% dip and MSCI’s gauge of global stocks shed 0.46%. The Fed on Wednesday signaled it would now be considering whether to taper its $120 billion-a-month asset purchase program meeting by meeting, and downgraded the risk from the pandemic given progress with vaccinations. Traders are “again buying Treasuries and technology stocks as the market continues to believe that, despite yesterday’s Fed meeting, the central bank is still planning on keeping interest rates near zero or extremely low for another 18-24 months,” said Chris Zaccarelli, chief investment officer of the Independent Advisor Alliance in Charlotte, North Carolina. Markets moved quickly to price in the risk of earlier action and Fed fund futures shifted to imply a first hike by the end of 2022. Two-year yields hit one-year highs. Yields on 10-year bonds matched Wednesday’s high of 1.594% before retreating. JPMorgan analysts noted Fed Chair Jerome Powell had not been as aggressive in his news conference. He had described it as a “talking about talking about meeting,” a reference to his protestations earlier this year that the Fed was not even “talking about talking about” tighter policy. “It appears that faster progress toward reopening and higher inflation surprises revealed some hawks on the FOMC, but we suspect that leadership is predominantly anchored at zero or one hike in 2023,” JPMorgan said, sticking with a prediction for tapering to start early next year. Some are beginning to expect the Fed to dial back purchases sooner. Bond giant Pimco’s U.S. economists said the tapering plan might now be announced as soon as September, and that it would take roughly six to nine months to wind down the stimulus. “The more hawkish changes to FOMC participants’ rate path expectations came despite little change in the 2023 unemployment rate and inflation forecasts,” Pimco said, “This suggests less tolerance for an inflation overshoot than previously thought.” Increasingly confident in the U.S. economic recovery, the Fed is seen most likely starting to taper in January, according to a Reuters poll. “Given another strong rise in the upcoming May core PCE data, July’s FOMC could well bring a very hawkish outcome to this talk, especially if nonfarm payrolls for June are over 1 million and prior months are revised up significantly,” John Vail, chief global strategist at Nikko Asset Management, said in a market note. DOLLAR BREAKS FREE The dollar broke out of recent tight ranges. It extended Wednesday’s 0.9% increase a basket of currencies to set a two-month high at 92.01. Colombia’s peso led Latin American currency losses on Thursday, dropping over 1% on the dollar’s strength. Powell’s hawkish turn prompted both Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank to abandon their calls that the U.S. currency would weaken against the euro, although others were not so sure. Agnès Belaisch, chief European strategist of the Barings Investment Institute, said the fact that the Fed was not going to lift rates anytime soon was good for world growth and that FX markets would therefore get over Wednesday’s shift. “He (Powell) said they wouldn’t do anything for the next two years, so it’s a shock but wrapped in good news,” Belaisch said. “I think he gave the markets the all-clear to rally.” The euro fell to $1.119195 from just over $1.20 in the Asian session. Oil prices toppled from their highest levels in years on Thursday, pressured by the dollar’s gains. The stronger dollar makes greenback-traded commodities more expensive to holders of other currencies. Brent retreated 2 percent to last trade at $72.93 a barrel, while U.S. crude fell 1.8% to $70.86. Precious metals sold off on Thursday. Spot gold was down 1.7% as U.S. gold futures fell 4.43% to $1,777.20 an ounce.
