Treasury yields took a hit this week as markets braced for Friday's employment figures. The numbers from December will be crucial—they could shape Fed policy expectations going forward. Meanwhile, there's also the Supreme Court's potential ruling on tariffs to watch. If they strike down those tariffs, it could significantly alter the US fiscal picture, which investors have been pricing in as a supportive factor for assets recently. Right now, the uncertainty around both data points is keeping bond traders cautious. Market sentiment hinges on whether these macro headwinds will strengthen or ease in the coming weeks.

Just waiting to see the employment data, it seems this wave of market movement depends entirely on this.

Damn, it's another employment data disruption. It feels like the bond market is going to be a waste of effort this week.

Bond prices are falling so sharply, isn't it because the two shoes—data and tariffs—haven't dropped yet? Are traders betting correctly?

Here it comes again, just waiting for the employment data to crash the market. Can it hold this time...

Tariff issues are really a tug-of-war. If the Supreme Court overturns it, those of us holding positions will be so happy.
---
Bond traders are probably overwhelmed right now, with two big bombs waiting to explode.
---
It feels like the Fed is a bit on the defensive this time; everyone was betting before the data came out.

The US Treasury's game is becoming more and more complicated, leaving ordinary investors dizzy.

I'm just worried that when the employment data is released, the market will crash immediately. It's the end of the year, and no one can hold on anymore.

I'm just worried that the employment data will be a surprise again, and then bonds will crash directly.

Once again, we're in a situation dominated by uncertainty, just waiting for that employment data to hit...
Wait, if the tariff case is really overturned, asset prices will have to be re-priced. This game is getting interesting.
Bond traders are definitely on edge right now; it's really uncomfortable.

I'm just worried that when the employment data is released, it will be a whole different story. This kind of suspense is the most torturous.
