12:55 EDTModerate Fed governor Bloom-Raskin sees progress in the labor market
Moderate Fed governor Bloom-Raskin sees progress in the labor market since the depths of the recession, but warned there's still further to go. She notes the unemployment rate remains too high and the official jobless rate underestimates the scope of the problem. Overall, these are relatively dovish remarks, though in line with what analysts would expect at this stage of the policy horizon. Her speech hasn't been posted online yet but can be found later on the Fed website.
12:35 EDTU.S. equities stalled out after their early rise
U.S. equities stalled out after their early rise with little upside momentum ahead of Friday's key payrolls after little upside progress in Europe into their close, with the Euro Stoxx 50 only 0.29% higher. The trade report gave away little to investors in terms of the overall growth outlook, given our Q1 GDP forecast being nudged up to 2.6% to 2.4% including recent annual revisions. All major indices have now slipped back into the red and this is helping draw bond yields back down from highs. Among the biggest gainers were Merck +3.0%, Intel +2.3% and AT&T +1.2%, with the biggest losers Home Depot -1.2%, Chevron -0.8% and Boeing -0.5%. Up next is Fedspeak from moderate Bloom-Raskin, thought hawk George will reportedly only release her text.

Treasury's $35 B 4-week bill sale wasn't great, relatively. The bill was awarded at 0.04%, right on the screws at the bid deadline and a tad cheaper than the prior stop at 0.03%. Bids totaled $153 B for a 4.38 cover, up from 4.12 last week, helped by the $10 B cut in size, but below the 4.55 average. Indirect bidders took 20.6%, below the prior week's 38.2% as well as the 24.9% average.
