Yesterday, the bond market once again took the bull. On December 10th, 30-year, 10-year, 5-year and 2-year treasury bond futures all hit record highs. Looking at it for a long time, since the beginning of this year, 30-year treasury bond futures have risen by nearly 16%, 10-year treasury bond futures have risen by over 5%, and 5-year treasury bond futures have risen by over 3%. Analysts pointed out that the logic of broad-spectrum interest rate downward has run through the whole year of 2024, and it is expected to continue to form an important support for the bond market in the long run. The recent market strength is not only an emotional effect at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, but also a blocking point to dredge and guide the overall downward trend of interest rates.

Most economists believe that the new government will inherit a fairly strong economy, and at least for now, the economy is undergoing a fundamental transformation. It has laid a more solid foundation for sustainable and broad-based high productivity growth. I sincerely hope that the new government can retain and further develop this achievement on this basis. We have created more than 16 million new jobs, which is the largest number of new jobs in any presidential term in American history. This is the lowest average unemployment rate among all governments in the past 50 years. The stock market hit a record high. I wish I owned a lot of stocks. Worst of all, I admit that for 36 years, I have been listed as the poorest person in Congress.Jon Finer, US Deputy National Security Adviser: Neither Russia nor Ukraine showed signs of concessions.
