Bonds were only open for half the day due to the national day of mourning for Jimmy Carter. Overnight markets made for a slightly stronger start and those gains slowly eroded throughout the day. MBS closed at perfectly unchanged levels and 10yr yields were a hair lower as Treasuries continue "healing" after this week's auction cycle. Friday morning brings the jobs report, which is just as much of a potential volatility flash point as it always is.
