Bonds Wearing Holiday Clothes Despite Trump Veto and Brexit

Along with the Friday after Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve is typically the lightest trading day of the year.  Today was no exception with both volume and volatility at a minimum.  MBS mostly held inside a 1 tick (0.03) range, which is about as narrow as it gets.  All this despite Trump's veto of the defense spending bill raising the possibility of a shutdown on Monday and the Brexit trade deal finally being confirmed.

This will be the last movement update of the day unless something impressive happens.  Bonds have been almost perfectly flat and lifeless all day.
