April 3. Post employment yield curve…5/30 breakout

US Treasury market is closed today but the futures markets were open….

After Employment data, with NFP up only 126k, FVM traded up 14/32 at 120-26, an equivalent decline of 8.5 in Fives.  Ultra Bond traded up 1-08 to 171-26, an equivalent decline of about 4.25 bps in the 30 yr yield.  I marked 5/30 on Friday at 118, which is already a breakout of the downward sloping trendline from late 2013.  However, with today’s action we’ve also leap frogged over this year’s high of 120…should now be around 122 bps.  I would put initial target at 140…  .382 retracement is around 160.
