January 11, 2021 Headlines

Overnight trading volumes were light in the Treasury market with Japan closed for holiday. Yields are slightly lower/flatter this morning on a softer tone in risk markets both here and abroad. There are no data releases on the economic calendar for today, but December CPI (Wednesday) and December retail sales (Friday) will be released this week. There are several Fed leaders scheduled to speak this week, including Jerome Powell taking part in a Princeton economics webinar on Thursday.
