Note bond yields rose last week, but US 10-years have yet to break their recent 2.3-2.6% range-this could be the week depending on the hawkishness of the Fed's accompanying statement. In other news, oil dropped as stale longs gave up on a further rally in light of rising US supply and ample inventories, while the European Central Bank hinted at an eventual winding back of its still aggressive policy stimulus.
