Treasury yields drifted slightly higher overnight after Eurozone PMI data for September was revised higher from previous estimates.

Initial jobless claims ticked up to 225,000 last week, slightly above expectations but still below the multi-month trend. It should be a relatively tame trading session ahead of tomorrow’s jobs report assuming no major non-financial headlines hit (e.g., geopolitical). A queue of container ships is growing outside east coast ports as the dockworker strike enters its third day. The strike impacts shipments of everything from perishable foods to auto parts, and port owners signaled openness to new talks late yesterday.
