Labor statistics are rear-view. Promises of new jobs (some of which will never materialize) are great, but they don’t guide Fed policy.

Bond rates are softening today due to job weakness. As I said earlier in the week, I’m long TLT (the 20-yeaar Treasury ETF), and of course GLD is extending its rally based on the anticipation of rate cuts.
