Good U.S. jobs number today Trump tweeted  

Bud (a.k.a. dealjunkie/hotmony), perhaps you might try thinking before posting? For example, with the above post, think about how often prolific tweeter President Trump tweets in a given day. If each of us posted about even one of his tweets in a given day, this message board would be inundated with posts. In my view, and likely others as well, that's not particularly helpful.

If you want to discuss some aspect of U.S. employment numbers, that's fine. But if you're just going to effectively "retweet" @realDonaldTrump's tweets, maybe don't post?

Just a thought.

Thanks,
Doug

It’s people selling off for profits. It will head back down. The other thing that’s happening, is some are dumping bonds and buying stocks because bonds keep going down. Add the profit takers and yield seekers together and yields rise. I’m quite sure the hordes will continue piling into long term bonds and drive the yields down.

Bud, do you know how many of the 81,100 jobs were private sector? (Easy to have everyone employed, put them on a gov't payroll.)
