Worries about the Greek debt swap agreement weighed against global stock markets earlier in the week, but confidence returned as the Greek deal looked like it would succeed. The February job market figures were strong, a positive for equities and a negative for bonds, but most of that news was already factored in.

Nonfarm payrolls rose by 227,000 in February, while the two previous months were revised a net 61,000 higher (leaving the three-month average at 245,000).
