In terms of US stock futures, the three major stock index futures were generally under slight pressure before the market, falling by about 0.3%, and failed to further extend Wednesday's rebound. The focus of many market participants was no doubt still on the move in Treasury yields, with the day's generally positive U.S. jobless claims and trade account data helping maturity yields regain their footing after falling sharply overnight.
The number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits remained at historically low levels last week, according to new data released by the Labor Department on Thursday, underscoring the continued strength of the Labour market. U.S. initial jobless claims for the week ended September 30 came in at 207,000, slightly higher than the previous reading of 204,000 but below expectations of 210,000.
A resilient labor market continues to fuel consumer spending in the face of high inflation and interest rates. Demand for workers remains strong, and the "feverish" layoffs of earlier this year have largely begun to abate. The monthly nonfarm payrolls report, due on Friday, will provide more information on the labor market. Economists expect nonfarm payrolls growth to slow to 170,000 in September, but to remain healthy overall.
Trade data also released today showed that the U.S. trade deficit in August fell to its smallest deficit in nearly three years - $58.3 billion, reflecting a pullback in U.S. demand for foreign goods and an increase in overseas goods exports. Imports fell 0.7 percent, while exports rose 1.6 percent. Rapidly rising borrowing costs could further limit American consumers' purchases of goods from abroad.
After the release of the above two sets of data, the yield of each maturity of the US Treasury bond rose slightly during the day, at one point hitting a intra-day high of 4.773 percent. The yield curve inversion between the 2-year and 10-year Treasury notes narrowed to 29 basis points, the smallest inversion since March.
In the past few weeks, a sharp sell-off in U.S. Treasurys has sparked wild swings in U.S. stocks, with the Dow now completely erasing its gains for the year and stocks ranging from technology to real estate falling. Despite the overnight rally, caution remains strong on Wall Street.
Liz Young, head of investment strategy at SoFi, said, "I've been cautious all year. Obviously we got a little bit of a breather on Wednesday, but I think it was just a brief respite."
It is worth mentioning that PIMCO co-founder and "old debt king" Bill Gross has warned again in a recent report that he no longer considers bonds to be an attractive investment, and stocks are even worse. In any case, he does not recommend long-term investments at current levels. Gross noted that the rise in Treasury yields means stocks now look overvalued in terms of their expected earnings.
