Why Strong Jobs Data Could Help Bonds.

Chris Vecchio went into the jobs report positioned for higher yields, read the number, and turned the other way on air. His reasoning is worth following: strong employment data raises the odds of a hike, and a hike is exactly what would calm the inflation worry sitting in the long end of the curve.

As he puts it, none of that guarantees a short covering rally, but the kindling certainly exists. Five Minute Futures is sponsored by CME Group.
