This morning's commentary focused on a bond rally in response to an absence of heavy-handed specificity in Trump's initial salvo of executive orders--specifically with respect to trade policy. In not so many words, massive, immediate tariffs have been referred to agencies for research and comment. Bonds (via futures) rallied on the news yesterday and into the overnight session. Without any new sources of inspiration today, the overnight gains remained intact and volatility was generally absent.
