Bond Markets Settle Down; U.S. Indexes Mixed

The recent Bond markets have settled down lately due to a couple reasons. one being that there had been an encouraging report on the labor market. another being that there is rising optimism about the american economy as well as the recent extension of the tax-cuts. European bonds and american treasuries have seen a slight increase as well lately. a down side of the situation is that people are fearing the deficit matters may worsen and that created a spike in treasury yields on Wednesday as investors dumped the bonds.
