July\u2019s and August\u2019s numbers were increased. The unemployment rate fell to 3.7%, its lowest level since 1969. While, the average hourly earnings rose 0.3%, after a stellar 0.4% gain the previous month.<\/p>\n<p>The 10-year Treasury note yield &#8230; rose 3 basis points to a seven-year high of 3.227%, contributing to a weeklong climb of 17.1 basis points, its largest such rise since February. The 30-year bond yield &#8230; rose 4.2 basis points to 3.396%, extending its weeklong rise to 20 basis points, its biggest such climb since the week of President Donald Trump\u2019s election. <\/p>\n<p>The shorter-end of the bond market showed a more modest rise. The 2-year note yield &#8230;  rose 0.8 basis point to 2.888%, its highest since 2008. The short-dated maturity posted a weeklong yield gain of 7 basis points. Bond prices move in the opposite direction of yields.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In Canada <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thestar.com\/business\/2018\/10\/05\/canada-gains-63000-jobs-in-september-unemployment-rate-falls.html\">we&#8217;re still grinding away at unemployment<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Canada\u2019s job market gained 63,000 positions in September, edging the unemployment rate lower to 5.9 per cent, and offsetting job losses in August, Statistics Canada reported Friday.<\/p>\n<p>September\u2019s increase in employment was largely driven by gains in part-time work, with part-time jobs up by around 80,000, the agency said in its monthly labour force survey.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>And <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmxmoney.com\/en\/market_activity\/candeal.html\">Five-year Canadas<\/a> popped up to 2.49% to close the week.<\/p>\n<p>The increase in yields must have been good for FixedResets, eh?
