Whoops, took my profits too early... could have done a little better.
Tomorrow's report on employment... have we been hiring or firing? It covers the Thanksgiving period I believe, so it should be a bond/bad number... then again housing was down a little so it could be bond/good. We dipped under 6% to get used to the water, maybe tomorrow we'll stay in for a swim.

Lisa,

The PREM or spread changes dramatically at times on a minute by minute basis. So it's easy to get a different value. You really need to look at a chart of it to get any feel for it, or at least watch the streaming quote of it. For example the one minute bar at 14:43 showed a high of 1.41 and a low of .26 You can see the difficulty of getting any meaning from a static PREM quote.

<At this point the spread is not giving me any indication that I am correct about any of
this as it has just made a new daily low.>

<this was posted at 2:30 and i was showing something over 1 for the PREM. and of course that wasnt a
new daily low....>

I don't know how to turn a chart into a .gif and e-mail it to you.

The spread constantly changes....perhaps quotecom misses or filters ticks.
