German 2 year yield is negative.

8.15.2014

Top Day Market News

Empire state manufacturing index at 8:30 along with the Producer Price Index. Then Industrial Capacity and Utilization followed finally by the ever popular U of Michigan consumer sentiment. (Whatever happened to the selling of this data point nano seconds before its actual release?) German 2 year yield is negative.

Yesterday felt like a short squeeze, a relentless grind higher. Bad news was good news. Crude cratered. 88 anyone?
