Treasury Yields Retreat as Jobs Data Looms and Oil Prices Plummet
U.S. Treasury yields declined Tuesday as investors look to jobs data that could provide hints about the state of the economy and the impact of the Federal Reserve monetary policy.
In August, the US labor market displayed mixed signals, with employers adding 187,000 jobs, slightly outperforming the consensus estimate of 170,000. Still, data for July was revised downward to 157,000 from the initially reported 187,000. However, unique circumstances, such as a strike in the entertainment industry and trucking company Yellow's bankruptcy, impacted the job figures. Excluding these factors, payrolls were on pace for an approximate increase of 241,000.
