Treasury yields are 2-4 basis points lower to start the day following a relatively quiet overnight session.

The bond market will close at 2pm ET today in honor of the National Day of Mourning for former U.S. President Jimmy Carter. The U.K. government bond market remains choppy on fiscal and inflation concerns, which has somewhat bled into U.S. markets, but Treasuries reversed a selloff yesterday following a downside miss in ADP payrolls data and dovish comments from Fed Governor Waller. Attention now shifts to tomorrow’s December jobs report, which is currently expected to show 165,000 jobs added to nonfarm payrolls and no change in the unemployment rate.
