Nice Intraday Bounce, But No Implication For Bigger Picture Bonds began the day losing ground following hotter inflation data in Europe.  The GDP contraction offered brief benefit, but yields moved to new highs after traders digested the internals.  Thankfully those highs weren't much higher than pre-GDP levels and they helped set a sideways range that remained intact for most of the day.  By the afternoon, bonds were challenging the stronger side of that range and MBS actually broke into positive territory resulting in multiple positive reprices.
