Bullish long day (confirmed bearish thrusting). Midpoint above EMA(10). Still above all SMA's. New high on daily 3LB (reversal is 1258.84). QE2infinity. MSM tried to talk market down after ADP but failed (or was that their intention?).

LEFTBACK'S BOND REPORT
The Bond Report 1.5.11
We thought we would add a little colour to the report today. So instead of the usual jargon like THE COMPRESSOR and THE STEEPENER, we would simply describe the day for each ETF. In a nutshell, it was RISK ON across the curve, and Timmay's offerings were spurned for more seductive higher yielding paper.
Corpies: LQD -0.73%; AGG -0.48%; JNK 0.48%; HYG 0.24%
Govies: TLT -2.04%; IEI -0.56%; TIP -0.38%
Hedgies: TBT 4.35%
TLT - taken to the woodshed, given a sound spanking, no dinner.
IEI - spanked and sent to bed, not allowed to watch Cramer.
LQD - had to shovel Bruce's driveway. It is half a mile long.
AGG - made to sit in the corner all day facing the wall.
TIP - ignored all afternoon and given Brussels sprouts to eat.
On the plus side:
HYG - well behaved all day and rewarded with candy at 3.45
JNK - put in a good day and enjoys a 6-pack of Natty Boh
and on the short side:
TBT - was fed grapes and wine by Karen wearing flimsy lingerie
