Softness in Chinese equity markets overnight, and lower oil prices are contributing to a 2-7 basis point decline in Treasury yields this morning, with long-end yields exhibiting the bigger move. 

Fed Governor Christopher Waller called for “more caution” in cutting rates going forward during a speech yesterday. “Whatever happens in the near term, my baseline still calls for reducing the policy rate gradually over the next year,” said Waller. This week’s economic calendar is headlined by weekly jobless claims and September retail sales, both released on Thursday.
