New York Stock Exchange regains color thanks to employment figures

The New York Stock Exchange found its colors at the opening, starting clearly in the green, after much better than expected employment figures: the Dow Jones advanced 0.89%, the Nasdaq rose 1.11%, and the S&P of 1.03%.

Bond rates were also picking up, with the yield on US 10-year debt moving to 1.59% after hitting its highest level of the year at 1.62% just before the opening, as the US economy appears rebound strongly with 379,000 new jobs created in February, three times more than in January.
