Splotto on the FOOL....
They are setting up the arguments for not having to raise
rates now that the jobs number was kicking in.

Reply from Mish......
That is my take as well.
Furthermore I think there is some chance that the last scare talk was actually to talk UP treasury yields to save FNM's ass from another round of refis as well as to quell some of the carry trade.

I also note that one more bad jobs report and the futures would have been calling for a cut.

It is interesting to see the biggest hawk come out with doveish comments today. I guess that is what "stability" means (dont dare upset this apple cart) ggg

If Russ has a different take I would like to hear it. If nothing else, this is the first time they have talked about "price stability" and that is what they are targeting but they never definded the god damn thing. Stability in WHAT PRICES? 10 yr treasuries to save FNM's ass?
