8:14AM Treasuries Primed for Action, GDP and Oil Taking Headlines : Treasuries remain under pressure this morning despite oil ticking a few notches higher overnight. Thursday's session saw some nice moves with oil and China taking treasuries for a round trip tour. China's rate hike weighed on global bonds early in the session and the volatile swings in oil dictated treasury movements for the remainder of the day. Treasuries saw little impact from weekly initial claims being reported above expectations indicating the market may be more concerned with job growth rather than job losses. After Wednesday's significant push lower the possibility exists for treasuries to end the week on a loss, the first weekly loss in four. However, predicting a weekly decline may be premature as oil remains volatile and some high quality economic data is scheduled for print this morning. The array of economic data being reported today should provide treasuries with something to spin on other than oil. Q3 GDP (adv) is expected to print 5.0%, chain deflator (adv) 1.5%, employment cost index 1.0%, U of M sentiment index 88.0, and Chicago PMI 58.0 (reminder: as of Friday the PMI will be released to subscribers with a 3-minute lead). In addition to the high quality economic reports, Fed Vice Chairman Ferguson (not a FOMC voting member) is scheduled to speak at the University of Connecticut on neutral interest rates. The 10-years are -07/32nds yielding 4.076%. One shituation may be subject to change (Halliburton) but other BS keeps right on ticking. 3-minute leak is now called a 3-minute lead. What a bunch of crap these mfkers are allowed.
