Markets will focus on three medium-impact events. Fed Governor Michelle Bowman speaks at 4:15 ET followed by Dallas Fed President Thomas Barkin at 9:30 ET. The Dallas Fed Manufacturing Index is scheduled for 6:30 ET with the prior reading at 11.6.
These Fed remarks will be parsed for any updates on inflation persistence and labor-market balance. The regional manufacturing gauge offers limited national insight but can influence short-term rate expectations. Treasury yields and equity futures will react to any shifts in tone from the speakers.
US consumer sentiment fell in September to a four-month low on concerns over prices and the economic outlook. Soaring bond yields have yet to restrain activity despite the 10-year yield near 5.17 percent. Retail sales grew 6.01 percent year-over-year through August while unemployment stood at 4.10 percent.
GDP expanded 1.50 percent quarter-over-quarter annualized in the first quarter and 2.10 percent year-over-year. Core PCE inflation remains above the Fed’s target with the August CPI print at 3.40 percent year-over-year.
China and the United States agreed to reduce tariffs on $60 billion of mutual imports, easing some bilateral trade tension. India’s foreign-exchange reserves fell the most in two years as the central bank defended the rupee amid higher oil prices. ↓ p.2

The United States plans import bans on select Canadian alcohol, whey, molasses and motorcycles starting this week. Nigeria and the United States signed a framework to increase American investment in Nigeria’s mining sector. White House tariff reviews now include lists of products that could receive reciprocal cuts with China.
These developments add modest support to global risk sentiment while keeping commodity and currency volatility elevated.
The federal funds rate stands at 3.88 percent. Bowman and Barkin speeches today will provide fresh forward guidance ahead of the next FOMC meeting. Recent communications have stressed that inflation at 3.40 percent year-over-year risks becoming entrenched if labor-market slack remains limited.
The 2-year yield’s 14-basis-point jump signals markets are pricing firmer policy for longer. The 10-year yield’s slight decline to 5.17 percent reflects modest flattening pressure. Officials continue to highlight the need for sustained restrictive settings until price pressures clearly moderate toward target.
Markets will watch for any deviation from the current data-dependent stance.
