CANADIAN BONDS SLIGHTLY OFF IN EARLY TRADE
Canadian bonds recouped some opening
losses to trade unchanged to mildly lower in quiet, mostly 
uneventful early activity, dealers said.
    The market opened 1/4 lower on weaker U.S. credit markets,
but later rebounded in tandem with American prices, which
reacted to a firming U.S. currency, the dealers noted. Many
investors stayed sidelined, awaiting clearer economic signals.
    The benchmark Canada 9-1/2 pct of 2001 fell 1/8 to 106-1/4
1/2 and the 8-1/2 pct of 2011 was unchanged at 97-3/8 5/8.
