Markets Roundup: Tsys Weaker After Noisy Dec NFP, Weak ISM Discounted

US TSYS
  • Treasury futures holding weaker after the bell, near the middle of a wide session range following this mornings headline NFP data. Mar'24 10Y futures -11 at 111-20.5 vs. 111-06.5 low; curves steeper: 3M10Y +6.503 at -133.760, 2Y10Y +4.017 at -34.770.
  • Deemed "noisy", the higher than expected jobs gain was tempered by down revisions for the two prior releases (Dec jobs gain of 216k vs. 175k est, prior down-revised to 173k from 199k).
  • Coupled with lower than expected ISM services data (50.6 vs. 52.5 est), ISM Services Employment (43.3 vs. 51.0 est) and Services New Orders (52.8 vs. 56.1 est) underlying rates gapped higher (10Y yield fell to 3.9513% low from 4.0971% high). Support gradually evaporated through midday with underlying futures holding weaker into the close with 10Y yield at 4.0476% (+.0489%).
  • The vast U.S. services sector is set to sustain modest growth in coming months despite a surprisingly poor end to last year, with possible Federal Reserve rate cuts helping to stimulate demand later in the year, Institute for Supply Management chair Anthony Nieves told MNI Friday.
  • Traders tentative as they await next week's CPI and PPI inflation measures on Thursday and Friday respectively.
