With nothing on the domestic data calendar there is little in the way of economic catalysts that investors can look to before tomorrow's State of the Union address. Despite the early weakness the averages continue to remain near their five year highs and have moved a bit up from their early session lows. The Dow is down 38 points, the Nasdaq is down 8 points and the S&P is down 3 points. |

| 08:45 EDT | | | Treasury Action: yields pulled back from highs
Treasury Action: yields pulled back from highs following the near-median print on payrolls, with back revisions virtually a wash, though the unemployment rate backed up to 7.6%. That gave the markets pause and yields eased even further as the news was digested. The T-note yield had run up to 2.10% prior to the snap, then plunged to 2.05% again in its wake. Whether 200k is any kind of threshold, or not, the Fed hasn't reached it in a sustainable way just yet. Taper-off... |

| 08:30 EDT | | | Treasury Action: yields are backing up into NFPs
Treasury Action: yields are backing up into NFPs as the bond market braces for an outsized number vs the 165k median. Anything much above that level would keep the Fed QE taper in play, while a 150k and below might calm the taper talk somewhat. Some sources are point to an MNI Beckner story that 200k is not the minimum target for a taper, though that's self-evident as the Fed has been looking for consecutive months of sustainable gains to justify any relaxing of QE via the taper. The T-note yield has jumped from the 2.05% area to 2.09%. |
