No economic news being released today.  Just a coming down from the excitement of yesterday's announcement of the Treasury Department buying up "toxic" funds in an attempt to get credit flowing from banks again.  As the details are digested and the news becomes a reality we shall see how the various markets react after the euphoric afterglow goes to the day by day grind.

Technically speaking - the FNMA 4.5% 30 year bond is back testing support levels.  The bond is still retreating from overbought levels.
