Deficit Priorities: Conflicting statements from Trump regarding the use of tariffs to address the +6% of GDP deficit have emerged, with suggestions of allocating funds to various sectors.
Economic Indicators: The market is largely anticipating a Fed rate cut on December 10, which may be contributing to inflation concerns, despite rising 2-year yields.
Retail Sales Data: US retail sales have shown strength overall, but the lack of comprehensive economic data makes it difficult to assess the current economic situation accurately.
