Bad Vibes Persist For Bonds and Rates Bonds began the day in weaker shape, thus keeping the threat of an ongoing correction alive. After a fairly sideways morning, MBS dropped more sharply in the afternoon. Treasuries maintained a gentle, but clear selling trend throughout the day. Moreover, yields easily broke up and over the 1.125% pivot point without a second though.

Treasury Slide Transcends NFP; MBS Outperform Bond yields rose overnight–well before NFP came out–following the senate's passage of a budget resolution that clears the way for (eventual) passage of the $1.9 trillion stimulus package. NFP helped (then hurt, then helped again), but bonds ultimately gave in to rising rate pressures as traders began to build in a concession for next week's Treasury auction cycle. 10yr yields were up roughly 3bps on the day at the close, but MBS managed to hold roughly unchanged (further adding emphasis to the Treasury auction trepidation and budget related concerns as a bond market mover).
