Both MBS and Treasuries just ratcheted to their weakest...

Fannie 3.0 had been holding their ground fairly well...

Some weakness has set in since the 10am hour, but so...

- Job Openings in September at 2.6 vs 2.7 in August
- Hires Down to 3.1 fro 3.3 in August
- JOLTS data is more of a strategic, longer-term consideration than an up-to-the-minute market mover. It simply adds to the broader assessment that the labor market remains relatively stagnant.

From the BLS:

"There were 3.6 million job openings on the last business day of September, essentially unchanged from August, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. The hires rate (3.1 percent) was little changed while the separations rate (3.0 percent) declined in September. This release includes estimates of the number and rate of job openings, hires, and separations for the nonfarm sector by industry and by geographic region.

In September, the hires rate was little changed at 3.1 percent. The hires rate was also little changed in all industries except state and local government, where it declined. The Midwest region experienced a decline in hires for September. The number of hires in September was 4.2 million, up from 3.7 million at the end of the recession in June 2009."
