# Weekly Recap | IEF.US -0.23%, 10-year yield hits 5%

## The Week

IEF.US fell 0.23% this week to close at $90.80, trailing the S&P 500 by about 0.15 percentage points. The weekly range was just $0.575, with amplitude of 0.63%, marking a low-volatility week. Monday (Sep 14) opened at $90.94 and briefly touched $91.25 before pulling back. Wednesday (Sep 16) hit the weekly low of $90.70, Thursday (Sep 17) rebounded to $91.25, and Friday (Sep 18) slipped again to close at $90.80.

## Sector News

The Treasury market centred on the 10-year yield reaching 5%, a level not seen for years. On Tuesday (Sep 15), the 10-year yield hit 5% before reversing. On Wednesday (Sep 16), a 20-year auction printed a record-high yield with sharply weaker foreign demand. Reports also noted Treasury ETF shorts rotating toward the belly of the curve ahead of the Fed decision. After the Fed kicked off its hiking cycle on Thursday (Sep 17), Treasury yields moved lower. IEF.US, as a 7-10 year maturity product, traded between $90.70 and $91.275, moving with mid-curve yields.

## The Week Ahead

Attention shifts to US economic data next week. Tuesday (Sep 22) brings the Richmond Fed Composite Index, with a prior reading of 4. Wednesday (Sep 23) sees EIA weekly crude oil and Cushing inventory updates. Thursday (Sep 24) features initial jobless claims, the current account balance, new home sales annualised, and EIA natural gas storage changes. For a mid-duration Treasury ETF, inflation expectations and labour market signals may continue to shape pricing in the belly of the yield curve.

## In Short

IEF.US logged a small weekly decline inside a narrow range, while the 10-year yield briefly touched 5% and a 20-year auction showed weak foreign demand. Shorts shifted toward the belly, where this ETF sits. On valuation, the fund trades at about 0.96x price-to-book, and the latest session showed large-lot net buying against small-lot net selling, reflecting a split in flow direction. The question ahead is whether next week’s data can shift the range-bound tone in mid-maturity yields.
