Not Reading Excessive Into Late Day Reversal

Bonds rallied quickly in response to this morning’s jobs report and pushed to even more powerful levels by mid-day. That’s the point in the day that most traders (the ones in fact working) consider bonds to be “closed.” You’re complimentary to do the same and count today as a win. However in the noon-2pm hour, a good piece of the AM gains were removed. We would not read too much into those and instead see them as an aspect of pre-holiday-weekend illiquidity and/or position squaring. This doesn’t imply directionality in the future. It just indicates we have to await next week to get a clean keep reading market sentiment.
