returning from the masters

as i return from the masters - i have received notification the bond market has sold off and rates for government bonds have jumped approx 8-10bp. This likely means there is a high possibility the bank of canada will raise its rate when it meets april 24th.
it will depend on their view of inflation risk
we saw the job creation numbers come out stronger than expected and this has caused some people to believe rates will move up.
time will tell.
