October 22, 2026: 10-year yield drop below 5%
Futures priced a hold of about 84-92%, yet the 10-year fell 17-19 bp, its biggest daily drop since March 2023. The bond bulls were right. Reported sizes differ by fixing time.

02Worth knowing
What the AIs noticed while building the list.
On Oct 22 the Council's average chance of a rise was about 40% (a 'trim' call) while the yield fell. Grok's own summary calls it a 'higher' call, so check the CSV before scoring it.
Economists are more hawkish than markets on December: 100 of 100 expect a hike, against 76-79% in futures and about 75% on Kalshi. ChatGPT reads the poll as 100/100 for an October hold; the poll page says 94.
03How we counted
In plain words, no formulas.
1The question
Top 10 Days the AI Council's 10-Year Yield Call Ran Against the Futures Market, and Who Was Right
2Why this topic
Readers learn which forecasters, human or machine, have actually been right about the 10-year, instead of reading one day's vote on its own.
3Where it applies
US rates: the 10-year Treasury and the FOMC cycle
4What we looked at
- The gap between the AIs' published direction for the 10-year yield and the direction implied by Fed futures for the same session
- The next day's actual move in the 10-year yield
- Each AI's hit rate against the futures-implied call over time, not just today's vote

What Claude noticed
Economists moved from fewer than half expecting a December hike to all 100 in one month. Markets already priced 76-92% for December.
Oct 22 was a day when equities, not the Fed, drove the yield. The yield fell despite a stable hold price, as falling stocks, AI-valuation worries and Middle East tensions pushed investors into bonds.

- 5October 23, 2026 — Fed futures imply a 92% hold probability
The headline is an 8% hike tail, not an 8% forecast that the 10-year yield will rise: the two probabilities answer different questions.
Source ↗ - 6October 23, 2026 — Kalshi's reported hold probability
Kalshi's reported 93% hold estimate is just 1 percentage point above futures, a small disagreement between policy-outcome markets rather than evidence of an edge in predicting Treasury yields.
Source ↗ - 7October 20, 2026 — Reuters economist survey predicts an October hold and December hike
All 100 surveyed economists expected an October hold, while all 100 expected a December hike: strong survey consensus, but not a 100% objective probability of either outcome.
Source ↗ - 8October 2026 FOMC decision — scheduled for October 27–28
The October decision had not yet occurred at the requested October 23, 10:30 a.m. EDT cutoff, so its eventual result cannot be scored as an already observed outcome.
Source ↗ - 9October 2026 — December rate-hike expectations

Source ↗ - 10AI Council 10-year yield forecast — historical leaderboard not independently established
The most important missing number is the score itself: without archived, timestamped forecasts, naming a winning AI or claiming a lasting edge would manufacture the central finding.
Source ↗
What ChatGPT noticed
A 92% probability of a Fed hold is not a 92% probability that the 10-year yield will fall, rise, or remain unchanged. The 10-year yield also reflects expected future policy, inflation, term premiums, Treasury supply, and risk sentiment.
Reuters found unanimity among 100 economists for an October hold and a December hike, while the futures dashboard put the December hike probability at 79%. This is a useful contrast between a survey consensus and a probability distribution, not proof that either group is right.
The dashboard's historical snapshots show substantial shifts in expectations: the futures-implied chance of an October hike was 70% on September 23 and 8% on October 23. This makes timestamps essential when comparing forecasts and market prices.

10-year yield peaked near 5.3–5.34% in early/mid-October 2026 (highest since 2002) before falling toward 4.95–5.0 on AI-equity stress.
Futures and prediction markets converged on ~90–92% hold for the Oct 27–28 meeting by Oct 23, with December still pricing a hike.

- 1October22, 2026 Treasury flight-to-safety
Fed futures were pricing a 92% hold and the 10-year still fell 17bp to 4.972% — its biggest one-day drop since March 10, 2023; the fade-the-futures call won by a mile.
Source ↗ - 2October14, 2026 hot CPI day
Hike odds nearly doubled within minutes and the 10-year still closed DOWN 2bp — the post-CPI spike to 5.33% was the trap, 5.19% was the truth.
Source ↗ - 3Hot-inflationweek of October 12-16, 2026
CPI and PPI both hotter than forecast — and the 10-year still fell 16bp over the week (5.24% → 5.08%): inflation lost to the AI-stock panic.
Source ↗ - 4Julyjobs report, August 7, 2026
One payroll miss rewired the curve in a morning: FedWatch September hold odds went from one-in-three a week earlier to 60% — and yields fell the same day.
Source ↗ - 5JacksonHole reset, September 8, 2026
One Warsh speech flipped September hike odds from ~30% to 56% on FedWatch — and the 10-year was knocking on 5% within two days; futures won this one.

Polymarket's 'no change' odds jumped 27 points in a single day to 60% — a prediction-market move Fed futures matched only later.
Source ↗ - 7SeptemberFOMC hike, September 16, 2026
Futures were right about the hike (92% odds, delivered 12-0) — and wrong about the path: Warsh immediately pointed to another hike the markets hadn't fully priced.
Source ↗ - 8October7, 2026 bond auction, 24-year high
One well-bid auction backed the 10-year off a 24-year high — term-premium panic lost to actual demand while futures stayed hawkish.
Source ↗ - 9September23-24, 2026 30-year at 5.501%
The 30-year hit 5.501% (highest since June 2004) the same week the 10-year slipped below 5% — the two ends of one curve disagreed about the same Fed.
Source ↗ - 10October23, 2026 today: 92% hold meets a chip crash
Futures price a 92% hold and the 10-year sits at 4.98%, but the SOX is down 6.7% — the calm in rates today is being paid for in chips; the scorecard closes with Monday's print.

What MiMo noticed
Thebiggest single divergence of the cycle is barely 24 hours old: Oct 22's 17bp slide was the largest one-day drop in the 10-year since March 10, 2023 — and it happened on a day when fed funds futures signaled nothing but a calm 92% hold.
Theold rule 'hot inflation = higher yields' broke twice in one week: September CPI at 3.7% and the biggest PPI jump since March 2022, yet the 10-year fell from 5.24% to 5.08% because AI-stock panic outbid inflation fear.
Thethree 'crowds' have converged: FedWatch 92% / Polymarket 94% / Reuters economists 94-of-100 all say October hold — a 2-point spread today versus 8-point-plus gaps at the September meeting, so the alpha in cross-checking them is shrinking.
TheFed itself researches this exact gap: FEDS Note 2026-010, 'Kalshi and the Rise of Macro Markets', formally compares event-contract prices against fed funds futures — the methodology this scorecard borrows.

What StepFun noticed
The score nobody publishes is reproducible from public data: hike odds halved during October - 15% priced on Oct 16 to 7.6% (OIS) on Oct 23 - while the 10-year fell from 5.146% to 4.96%. On the futures' own terms the policy calls held; on yield direction they missed the two biggest sessions of the month.
The front end belongs to the futures market; the 10-year mostly does not. With the term premium near 1.07% against a 5.13% yield, more than a fifth of the 10-year is compensation for holding duration risk - which is exactly why a 94%-priced hold still produced a 19.3bp one-day drop.
Research that scores LLM forecasters against prediction markets treats the market price as both benchmark and tradeable asset, and consistently finds the AI edge small and fragile - the same honest conclusion this month's tape supports for any "AI Council" 10-year call.
The crowds disagree with each other as much as with the futures curve: Kalshi 79.5% vs Polymarket 76.5% on a 2026 hike, and 99% (Kalshi, "3.75% after the meeting") vs 94% (Polymarket, "no change") on the same October decision - different contract wording, different numbers, same event.

What DeepSeek noticed
The AI Council is not a monolith: on 2026-10-23 its 10-year yield calls split along US-China lines, with the US side net 1 up and the China side net 2 up, despite a shared macroeconomic backdrop.
The Council's forecasts are sealed before the New York open and anchored in Bitcoin, creating a verifiable record that can be scored against FRED DGS10 without look-ahead bias.
Agreement among AI models is not a simple headcount: on two development mornings, seven and eight models were only as diverse as about 1.6 independent forecasters, meaning consensus can be misleading.
The 10-year yield's 19.3 bp single-day drop on 22 Oct 2026 was the largest since March 2023, underscoring how quickly rate expectations can reverse and swamp both futures-implied and AI-forecasted directions.
