GDP for Q3 may be ancient history as far as econ data goes, but markets didn't seem to think so in the hour following this morning's release. GDP was much stronger than expected and bonds traded it like it was a legit market mover. But most of the reaction was a holiday-induced amplification of what might have otherwise only caused barely-noticeable weakness in bonds. That point was driven home by the end of the day as both Treasuries and MBS returned to unchanged levels.
