10yr yields tested multi-month highs overnight (1.573), but improved gradually leading up to the domestic session. Bond bulls held their breath at 8:15am ET when ADP employment data came out stronger than expected, but traders took it in stride. After a few moments of weakness, yields continued falling into the 10am hour. The rest of the day was flat despite some traction on a temporary debt ceiling extension deal.

Addition recovery heading into the 9am hour with 10yr yields now DOWN on the day, albeit only slightly, at 1.521%. MBS are within 1 tick of 'unchanged.'
Very flat since this morning's friendly correction. Levels are right in line with the last update and no market movers in sight.
Bonds weakened briefly and modestly after news on a temporary debt ceiling extension, but are back in line with the previous levels (10yr yields at 1.522 and MBS up 1 tick).
