Eye On Yields: Fed Needing To Play Catch-Up?

YIELDs have been rising lately (duh)... 2 Year is pushing up toward 4.80%, up 55 bps since the Feb. 1 FOMC rate hike from 4.25% to 4.50%, which warns us that Fed funds are now below the market, and that the Fed now is in the position of needing to play catch up! 

Beneath my 2 Year YIELD Chart is the 10-Year YIELD. During the month of February (remember, the FOMC Meeting was on Feb. 1st), benchmark longer term YIELD climbed from 3.33% to 4.05% today (!) in what looks like the initiation of a new upleg in the larger post-2020 upleg...
