U.S. private sector payrolls fell sharply, and rising Treasury prices sparked bets on rate cuts.
After the sharp decline in US private sector employment data, US Treasury prices rose, prompting traders to increase their bets on a rate cut by the Federal Reserve this year.

Gregory Faranello, head of interest rate trading and strategy at Ameri Vet Securities, said that the job market has clearly weakened, and the market reaction is because the likelihood of the official non-farm employment report being released on Friday seems unlikely.
