When SOFR drops, it means the cost of borrowing cash overnight, secured by U.S. Treasury securities, has decreased. This can signal:

  • Increased liquidity: More cash is available in the overnight lending market, reducing borrowing costs.
  • Lower borrowing costs: Companies and financial institutions can borrow money more cheaply, which may boost lending and economic activity.
  • Easing monetary conditions: It can reflect looser monetary policy or greater investor demand for safe assets like Treasuries.
