Goodbye carry trade?

Traders will always prefer to be in positive yield trades but at some point the price level has to reflect underlying fundamentals.

I would correct the first part of that statement to:
Traders who deal with carry/rollover will prefer to be in positive carry trades...

There are loads of day traders out there who could care less about interest rate differentials.

As for the remainder of the statement, price never has to do anything. Price is a reflection of the collective "view" of things (technical, fundamental, and otherwise) at a given point in time. That view is constantly changing based on news, data, price action, and the positions of those looking at the market.
