Treasuries and U.S. equity futures are little changed following a relatively quiet overnight session. New Covid-related lockdowns/restrictions continue to be rolled out in Europe and the U.S., but these headlines are being offset this morning by Pfizer’s announcement that it could be applying for FDA authorization of its Covid vaccine within days. The company reported that the final analysis of its vaccine showed 95% effectiveness. Four different Fed leaders will be speaking today at separate events, including Jim Bullard (St. Louis Fed) presenting his economic outlook. Bullard is known to make a headline or two with his comments, for better or worse.
