Well, the jobs report from the government came out, and the data was relatively boring:
The immediate reaction was a spike across the board in all asset classes. Then it plunged. And now, as I’m typing these words (about 21 minutes after the release) it’s a mixed bad. So the market doesn’t know quite what to do with this latest tidbit of government artifice.
Which leads me to the same state of confusion and non-conclusions as the market in general! I guess we’ll have to wait for the regular trading day to begin, eh? In any case, let’s hope for a good final day of the week and look forward to NO MORE HOLIDAYS until freakin’ September.
