Good Evening,

Today’s trade recap by our trading desk:-

·         NFP came in slight lower than expected on Friday night at +152k vs +172k expected. However, yields were not really moved while the market was more focused at the 2nd Presidential Debate this morning; during which both candidates were exchanging fire at each other. With a few major markets on bank holiday today (US, Japan, Canada, Hong Kong), the market was largely unmoved in a very quiet day. Trades were lackluster as yields were mostly unchanged also.
