The typical early close for the bond market is 2pm ET. This is usually reserved for a holiday-adjacent day such as Christmas Eve or the day after Thanksgiving. Good Friday is unique. On years where it DOES NOT coincide with a jobs report, it's fully closed. Otherwise, it's open for a partial day, but only until noon ET instead of 2pm. That didn't leave much time for anything else to happen this morning after the initial bout of moderate selling pressure. It also discouraged trading volume in general--especially in light of other markets being fully closed.
Weaker after jobs report. MBS down 10 ticks (.31) and 10yr up 4.2bps at 4.349

Lock / Float Considerations
4/3/26 - March's rate spike has come off the boil as of early April, but volatility risks remain as long as the war in Iran continues. Volatility risks exist for other reasons as well, of course, but what we're waiting for is the potential shift in defensive momentum that could coincide with the end of the war. While the past several days have been "nice" in that regard, it's still too soon to bank on it from a lock/float standpoint.
