good morning. >>> good morning, becky. we are seeing fairly cautious day of trade here in europe but we did see a bit of a bit on these markets on the back of that key davos debate as germany, france, spain economy and finance ministers along with the european monetary affairs commissioner olli rehn were talking about how to solve the european crisis so the markets were trading weaker and the ftse 100 was down about 0.3% before the debate so you can see it's trimming its losses. the german market has been solid rising about 0.3%. selling in some of the major banks in france is keeping the market cap. the cac is in flat territory. what is worth focusing on in italy today is debt markets. we've seen some improvement in the ten-year yield but short-term borrowing costs, a six-month auction today, saw the yield below 2%. just a month ago the yield was 3.25%. we are seeing some improvement in the davos debate. reference to the ltro, the extra liquidity program helping out yields and this is showing some improvement on the spani

all that green behind ross is a big factor, becky. the other thing i would point out that more than micro analysis is we're trading in the same place as the s&p as we were on thursday and most of the day on friday. so it's been kind of an overanalyzed move to nowhere and to put that same move in perspective, look at the last hour, the last two in trading in the treasury complex. yes, it was on a big rally, lost a point quietly and the ten-year note is now trading, the futures, where it was on friday's close. so i think that's a really hot number to watch for the rest of the week, 131.23 on the ten-year contract. a lot of information that starts today with chicago and i think that kind of overanalysis of the short term could catch some people out when you look at the week as a whole. >> a lot of people said that staying above 1300 for the s&p was a key technical issue. >> yeah, i think it probed down briefly and early in the session and met some buyers. it think that's a big thing. i would also caution, though, that the japanese yen es

cnbc's becky quick is here.ell, the jobs report looks like, you know, all of those estimates were actually right for once. >> yeah, they were. in fact, the estimates were even on the low side of things, chuck. this was a very strong report by just about every measure. we looked at the number of jobs that were created. it was 200,000 for the month of december. economists were only predicting 155,000 even though trade hers been looking for a higher whisper number. the unemployment rate actually dropped to 8.5%, than was a big surprise because a lot of people figure that had that number would actually tick higher after we saw some big drops in previous months. now it was revised for november from 8.7% to 8.6%, but still, showing very steady progress at chipping away at that number and that has a lot of people very enthusiastic. the traders on wall street, yeah, you would think they would be cheering this and they did initially. saw the dow pick up by 30 points from where it had been. at this point it looks like the
