The 7.5 bp decline in the 10 year Tsy yield today if sustained would be the biggest decline since mid-May. To me, the fact that the yen is flat is a yellow flag, something may be amiss, but even a 0.80 correlation allows for it. Mixed data though good demand at 7yr auction.

Brazil: 50% tariff + exceptions = de-escalation? > So, the 50% tariff goes ahead, but key exceptions mean that the effective tariff is likely to be ~30%. It is high, but not the end of the world as Brazil is a relatively closed economy and the US accounts for ~11% of exports
