CPI report is due tomorrow morning - no matter what is reported here, there should be volatility in the bond market, but I think bonds will trade up after that in anticipation that the major driver to inflation (oil) will no longer be a factor in the future.

Filled on the ES at 885 short, 3:55am pacific. The high of that morning was 887.50. There must have been some news from an over-zealous news reporting saying something bad happened to Saddam again.. the joys of 24 hour markets!

Thankfully I pulled my TBond long orders, so I don't have any position on the bond market yet. I find it a little disturbing that bonds are still trading down despite the fact that the stock market is not exactly skyrocketing up - this suggests there's still a bit more cash destined to go into equities, so I'm going to close my ES position at 870 or 883, whichever comes first. (so a 15 point profit, or 2 point profit).
