Pension funds and other major investors should be big buyers of bonds during the next week or so, as they rebalance their holdings to make up for the bond market's first quarter sell-off. That could send bond yields lower, at least temporarily. Wells Fargo's Michael Schumacher estimates corporate pension funds will have to make up a gap in bond holdings of about $125 billion, the biggest shortfall in about a decade. Normally, stocks would be under selling pressure as big investors rebalance by also reducing holdings because of the stock market's positive performance. As yields slipped Monday, stocks rallied, especially the Nasdaq which has been hurt most by rising yields.

"They will be explaining themselves as economists, and they'll be speaking a different language than the bond market speaks." Bond market directionSchumacher said there's a chance the bond market could steady in the next couple of weeks, even if yields tick up.

Don't rule out a 10-year Treasury Note yield as high as 2.25% this year. That's the message from Wells Fargo Securities' Michael Schumacher, ahead of Wednesday's Federal Reserve interest rate decision. In December on "Trading Nation," Schumacher predicted Covid-19 vaccines would dramatically boost confidence and lift Treasury yields in 2021. So far this year, the benchmark 10-year yield is up 77%. "Yields began this year — if you focus on the 10-year Treasury — just north of 90 basis points.

Hamilton is now a Sir as well as a seven-time Formula One champion after being knighted Wednesday, Dec. 30 in Queen Elizabeth IIs New Year honors list. (Giuseppe Cacace, Pool via AP, File)LONDON – Lewis Hamilton is now a “Sir” as well as a seven-time Formula One champion. Supporters have suggested Hamilton would have been knighted sooner if not for his tax status. In descending order, the main honors are knighthoods, CBE, OBE and Member of the Order of the British Empire, or MBE. There is growing criticism of the honors’ evocation of the British Empire, the legacy of which has been debated anew amid campaigns against racism and colonialism around the world.

Michael Schumacher, the firm's head of macro strategy, expects the 10-year and 30-year Treasury Note yields to move meaningfully higher due to progress against the coronavirus. We can deal with another 20, 30, 40 basis points, whatever might be in the 10-year yield,'" he said. About a month later, during overnight trading on March 9, the 10-year Treasury yield plunged to an all-time low of 0.318%. Now Schumacher's base case has the benchmark 10-year yield between 1.15% to 1.35% by 2021's halfway point. "If everything were to line up really perfectly, economically and in terms of vaccine, maybe yields go up to 1.50%," Schumacher said.

Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton of Britain holds up the trophy on the podium after winning the Emilia Romagna Formula One Grand Prix, at the Enzo and Dino Ferrari racetrack, in Imola, Italy, Sunday, Nov.1, 2020. (Miguel Medina, Pool via AP)IMOLA – Runaway championship leader Lewis Hamilton overcame a sluggish start to win the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix on Sunday for a record-extending 93rd Formula One victory. The safety car remained on the track following another crash as George Russell lost control and slammed into the track barriers. This gave Bottas a chance to pressure Hamilton with six laps left, but Hamilton got away cleanly after the re-start and clocked fastest laps on his way to another comfortable win. “It was an exhausting race, the speed we were having to go after a poor start," Hamilton said.

Wells Fargo Securities' Michael Schumacher has a message for investors: Buckle up. The firm's head of macro strategy warns Wednesday's market turbulence may just be a preview of what's ahead. While jitters over rising virus cases drove the latest sell-off, Schumacher warns election uncertainty has the potential to pummel stocks even more. "One thing we pointed to for a while at Wells Fargo is the chance the election results are delayed. Besides the impact on stocks, the worsening pandemic and election uncertainty have also been putting pressure on U.S. Treasury yields.

Hamilton was dominant in 2015, sealing his third F1 title at the U.S. Grand Prix with three races to spare. 2, Hamilton won the next two championships in 2017 and 2018 as Vettel blew midseason leads for Ferrari. Last year's title was emphatic as Hamilton won 11 races compared to three for Bottas, finishing 87 points clear of him.

(Jorge Guerrero, Pool via AP)PORTIMAO – British driver Lewis Hamilton made Formula One history on Sunday, winning the Portuguese Grand Prix for a 92nd career victory to move one ahead of German great Michael Schumacher. Hamilton added five more F1 titles and the runaway championship leader is now set to equal Schumacher’s record of seven. Hamilton took a record-extending 97th career pole position, starting ahead of Bottas and Verstappen on a track being used for the first time in F1. McLaren's Carlos Sainz Jr. briefly held the race lead and then Bottas led until Hamilton passed him on Lap 20. Kimi Raikkonen went from 16th to sixth with some typically daring moves but the 41-year-old Finn started to drift back while, up ahead, Bottas led until Hamilton overtook him.

Hamilton gets the helmet as a gift from Michael Schumacher's son Mick because he equals Schumacher's record of 91 wins in the Formula One. (Bryn Lennon, Pool via AP)NÜRBURG – NÜEven Lewis Hamilton once saw Michael Schumacher's record of 91 wins in Formula One as unbeatable. Hamilton took a big step closer to matching Schumacher's record of seven titles too after his teammate Valtteri Bottas failed to finish with an engine problem. Hamilton started faster than Bottas and had the inside line into the hairpin bend at turn one. After Hamilton matched Schumacher’s record in front of a German crowd at a track where Schumacher won five times, he can surpass it on a track where F1 has never raced before.

Officially, the German Grand Prix is on hiatus this year, and this race — a late replacement on the coronavirus-affected calendar — is called the Eifel Grand Prix after a nearby mountain range. As many as 20,000 fans could attend, making it the best attended race of the season apart from the Russian Grand Prix. NEW GENERATIONIt's been eight years since Michael Schumacher's last F1 race, and now his son will officially be part of an F1 race weekend for the first time. Michael Schumacher hit his head on a rock and sustained severe brain injuries which left him requiring constant care. When Hamilton and Michael Schumacher last raced together at the Nürburgring in 2011, there were six Germans on the grid including then-world champion Sebastian Vettel.

Hamilton's Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas cruised to the win Sunday after Hamilton, who was leading, was penalized 10 seconds for practicing his starts in the wrong place before the race. Hamilton came into the race looking to match Michael Schumacher’s record of 91 wins in Formula One but had to settle for third behind Bottas and Max Verstappen. Bottas built a sizeable lead over Verstappen with ease and eased to his first win since the season-opening Austrian Grand Prix. Hamilton had asked Mercedes over the radio if he could perform the starts at the pit exit, and was told he could. Albon has finished behind his teammate Verstappen every time they have both completed a race this season.

Brendan McDermid | ReutersStock market volatility, with sharp ups, downs and reversals, is likely to be the norm again in the week ahead, as investors await Friday's jobs report and watch headlines from Washington and the presidential debate. Stocks were very volatile in the past week, but the S&P 500 ended the week at 3,298, down just 0.6% for the week. JP Morgan economists said they expect job growth to continue, but they also said the lack of stimulus and aid to the unemployed could slow consumer spending. Election watchMichael Schumacher, director of rate strategy at Wells Fargo, said the debate may have more potential to move the market than the jobs report. Besides the jobs report, there is ISM and PMI manufacturing data Thursday.

(AP Photo/Luca Bruno, Pool)MUGELLO – Mercedes driver Valtteri Bottas completed a sweep at the Tuscan Grand Prix when he posted the fastest time in third and final practice ahead of qualifying later Saturday. But Bottas test drove here with Williams back in 2012 and so far has looked more assured than Hamilton, who hasn't driven here before. Hamilton looked set to beat Bottas when he led on the first time split, only to fall back in the second and third sectors.

(Jennifer Lorenzini/Pool via AP)Lewis Hamilton set the fastest Formula One lap ever to grab pole position at the Italian Grand Prix, nudging Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas into second place by just 0.069 seconds on Saturday. Defending champion Hamilton raced around the 3.54 miles (5.79 kilometers) of asphalt at the so-called Temple of Speed in the fastest lap recorded in the sport at 164.267 mph (264.362 kph).

I can imagine its definitely not the most exciting (race), Hamilton said. Hamilton is favorite to win a seventh title to tie Schumacher's record. When Hamilton crossed the line, the forest was eerily silent and the only sound was his engine.

Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton of Britain leads the pack out of the 1st curve during the Formula One Grand Prix at the Barcelona Catalunya racetrack in Montmelo, Spain, Sunday, Aug. 16, 2020. The talk before the race was whether Mercedes' tires would be vulnerable in the searing summer heat of Spain, after experiencing problems in the past two races at Silverstone. After narrowly securing a record-extending 92nd career pole position Hamilton made a strong start on the long straight to the first corner. Track temperatures on the circuit were around 50 degrees C (122 F) and Mercedes was concerned about catching too much sun. These black overalls are hot, Bottas said during the race, throwing in an expletive for emphasis.

When I heard his (Bottas' tire) went I looked at mine and it seemed fine.Charles Leclerc finished third for Ferrari with Daniel Ricciardo fourth for improving Renault and British driver Lando Norris fifth for McLaren. Hamilton set a track record and secured a record-extending 91st career pole and a record seventh at Silverstone on Saturday. Bottas qualified second ahead of Verstappen, who was racing in his 106th GP to equal his father Jos Verstappen's tally. Halfway through the race, Hamilton led Bottas by about two seconds and the British driver extended his lead comfortably as another Mercedes 1-2 finish looked certain. As he was last season, Verstappen looks the only driver capable of genuinely challenging Hamilton.

(Bryn Lennon/Pool via AP)SILVERSTONE Lance Stroll led the second practice for the British Grand Prix on Friday while struggling Ferrari had another bad day, with Sebastian Vettel spending most of it stuck in the team garage. Stroll finished fourth at the Hungarian GP two weeks ago for Racing Point, which uses Mercedes engines and has been showing good pace this season. There's a lot of heat coming from the cockpit, the championship leader Hamilton said right at the end of a session held amid hot and humid conditions. The second session was interrupted half way through when Albon span off the track and slammed backward into the crash barrier.

The U.S. government is moving faster than expected to stretch out the time over which it will pay down its record deficit, strategists say. As part of that plan, the Treasury is bringing back the 20-year bond, last issued in 1986. Obviously, we haven't seen one in a little bit of time. There's always is a little bit of uncertainty around the unknown in general," said Gregory Faranello, head of U.S. rates at AmeriVet Securities. Yields move opposite price, and its yield is about 50 basis points above the 10-year, at 0.69% Wednesday.

The unemployment rate is expected to jump from 4.4% to over 16.1% in April, the highest level since 1939, according to Dow Jones. I think they think the unemployment rate is going to rise through the summer," said Stephen Stanley, chief economist at Amherst Pierpont. "I think the unemployment rate probably peaks in May." Stanley said he expects the unemployment rate to be a better-than-consensus 11.6% in April before it rises again in May. Economists say with such big unprecedented numbers, it is difficult to predict the unemployment rate since some people may have been temporarily unemployed and expect to return to work.

Wells Fargo Securities believes 10-year Treasury yields are on the verge of a sustainable run above 1%. Michael Schumacher, the firm's chief macro strategist, expects improving economic conditions will push Treasury yields higher and prices lower. He sees the 10-year yield within the next three weeks trading around 0.80%, a 21% bump from current levels. By summer, Schumacher predicts yields could make a comeback above one percent. His year-end target on the 10-year yield is 1.25%, which assumes there will be no second wave of virus cases.

The benchmark 10-year Treasury Note yield is already down 22% so far this year. On Friday, the 10-year yield hit a low of 1.50% its lowest level since early September. If the coronavirus situation continues to deteriorate, Schumacher warns 10-year yields could fall at least another 30%. If stocks continue to get hammered, Schumacher expects it to put Treasury yields under more pressure. "For every one percent move in the S&P, it's worth four basis points maybe in the 10-year," Schumacher said.

The Treasury Department is issuing a 20-year bond for the first time in 34 years to help pay for the ballooning $1 trillion dollar budget deficit. On Friday, news of the 20-year triggered a so-called "steepening" trade where Treasury yields on the long end of the curve rose, like 10-year and 30-year yields, and shorter duration yields, like the 2-year, fell. Strategists say investors were betting the new 20-year will help drive rates higher at the long end of the Treasury curve. "At that time, we had been strong advocates for a 20-year issue, and had even penciled one into our baseline forecasts. "We really need to lock in low yields long term but 20-years was the compromise."

If jobs market strength persists, Wells Fargo Securities Michael Schumacher isn't ruling out a 2020 interest rate hike especially if the Federal Reserve decides to add one more insurance cut early next year. Right now, the fed funds futures market is placing a fraction of one percent chance the Fed will raise rates next year. It's pretty darn good," said Schumacher. And, the view from our economics team is pretty simple," Schumacher said. "The U.S. economy is in a pretty good spot."

As a possible trade deal gets closer, investors are less fearful of a recession and interest rates are in a new trend higher. "The one thing in Washington that's affecting markets, and the only thing, is the trade deal," said Andrew Brenner of National Alliance. ... How quickly you resumed higher rates and how quickly the curve is steepening out tells me the trend is changing, and we're moving to a very large trend higher in interest rates." "I think a lot of this is optimism over the trade deal possibly getting done. The 10-year yield hit its high for the year in January at near 2.80%, falling to its low in September.

Wells Fargo Securities' Michael Schumacher sees year-end bond market volume dropping off earlier than usual. According to the firm's global head of rate strategy, the slide will likely occur around Thanksgiving instead of mid-December. Not only is Wall Street still thinking about last year's painful historic stock market drop, Schumacher blames the geopolitical backdrop. He contends it's putting bond investors on edge. "Why should I take a lot of risk around year-end when I can't really get a grip on some of these things?"

Strategists said it appears the Bank of Japan will buy fewer longer duration bonds in its quantitative easing program, and that could pressure rates higher. But then in the U.S., ISM manufacturing fell to 47.8% in September, its second month of contraction, and the lowest since June 2009. Schumacher said Tuesday was the 22nd day in 2019 with a 10 basis point or more move in the 10-year yield. That was the year of the presidential election, but also the Brexit vote, after which the 10-year yield fell as low as 1.32%. Wells Fargo expects the 10-year to be at 1.70% at the end of the year, while Bank of America sees a 1.25% 10-year yield.
