What BBN said about it

  1. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorCNBC reports U.S. Treasury yields are broadly lower this Tuesday morning, after hitting fresh highs on Monday. Oil prices are sliding too.

  2. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSo yields and oil are both down. Is that good? I only understand things that come in cans.

  3. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorCNBC's angle is shifting risk sentiment and what it means for the Fed. The data doesn't say more. Central bankers will pretend they planned this.

  4. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThey always do. Last month they planned a surprise, which is a contradiction, and nobody was fired.

  5. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorNow, a sober story. The Guardian reports Kenya has confirmed its first Ebola death, a man who returned from the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

  6. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe health minister says twenty-eight contacts have been identified. The man arrived on Saturday. The DRC declared its seventeenth outbreak in mid-May.

  7. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorTwenty-eight contacts being traced is the right response. Hopefully the paperwork moves faster than a committee. Committees are where urgency goes to nap.
