US SWAPS: Goldman Recommend Tactical 2s5s Steepener Into Payrolls

Jun-30 10:50

Goldman Sachs note that “the market-implied Fed path sits firmly on the dovish side of our economists’ baseline but is decidedly less offside on a probability-weighted basis given the context of risks that are firmly tilted to the downside”.

  • They continue to think that “the path to substantially lower yields by and large rests on hard data deteriorating but acknowledge that yields could settle into a modestly richer range if inflation data provide additional evidence of mild passthrough from tariffs, which would likely support a friendlier demand backdrop”
  • Ultimately, they believe that “it makes sense to navigate the data calendar tactically, recognizing that weakness in the hard data can open the left tail towards faster/larger cuts, while inflation news likely carries weight on the timing of moves in the absence of a growth signal”.
  • As a result, they recommend adding 2s5s swap curve steepeners into the June payrolls print.
