Haven't seen this sort of thing in a while, but here's the lead of Wrightson ICAP's preview of Friday's US employment report (Wrightson is a research boutique specializing in the credit markets):


>The monthly employment reports have consistently been a source of
>good news for the credit markets this year, and there is no reason
>to expect the headline numbers to be anything but bond friendly
>again this month. We share the consensus forecast of a 25K decline
>in payrolls and a 0.1% increase in the unemployment rate.
