US inflation expectations, as measured by the 10-year breakeven inflation rate per the St. Louis Federal Reserve (FRED) data, jump to the fresh high since October 27 by the end of Monday’s North American trading.
In doing so, the risk barometer extends the previous week’s rebound from the lowest levels since October 12 to flash 2.62%, per the official website data.
