Top Day Recommendations
No economic releases until Wednesday. Bonds are lower in the belief that durable goods orders later in the week will show acceleration in US growth. The 10 year note has backed up 5 out of the last six sessions. There’s also an auction of 2, 5 and 7 year notes this week to raise 99 billion. The Fed also meets for two days starting tomorrow with a rate decision on Wednesday at 2:15. Some have speculated that a Romney win would lead to labeling China as a currency manipulator and their preemptive action is to reduce their US debt holdings.
There was also a story over the weekend that the US and Iran were about to discuss Iran’s nuclear program; in other words, the sanctions have applied enough pain to the Iranian economy, especially with the devaluation of their currency, to bring them back to the negotiating table to review their uranium enrichment program.
