Earlier this month, while the US10Y yield was at 3.9670%, we wrote that it was likely headed towards 5.50% in the months ahead. That prediction was based entirely on our Elliott Wave interpretation of its daily chart, which showed that the decline from just over 5% to just under 3.60% was corrective. Therefore, the preceding uptrend was still in progress and likely to resume.
Today, the yield on the 10-year US government bond reached 4.26%, so it is fair to say that things are so far going to plan. In fact, the structure of the rally from 3.5990% is a very clear five-wave impulse, confirming that the uptrend has resumed.
Similar Elliott Wave setups occur in the Forex, crypto, stock and commodity markets, as well. Our Elliott Wave Video Course can teach you how to uncover them yourself!
We’ve labeled the pattern i-ii-iii-iv-v in what should be wave (i) of the bigger wave 5. The five sub-waves of wave ‘v’ are visible, as well. If this count is correct, it makes sense to expect a three-wave decline in wave (ii) to 4.00% – 3.90%, before the bulls return in wave (iii). Even if wave (ii) drags the US10Y yield lower than 3.90%, the positive outlook would remain intact, unless 3.5990% gives up.
