Very little changed after this morning's commentary. At the time, we were watching bonds sell-off somewhat sharply in response to an exceptionally strong ISM Manufacturing report. As is often the case with data-driven selling sprees, the worst was over in the first 10 minutes and the rest of the day was broadly sideways. That said, it wasn't without its interesting updates. Chief among them was news that this Friday's jobs report would be postponed due to the government shutdown (and same story with tomorrow's JOLTS data).
