TREASURIES-Yields little changed after U.S. jobs data on safety bids

[Reuters - UK Focus] - U.S. Treasury yields were little changed on Friday following an initial yield rise after data showing a December surge in U.S. jobs growth was quelled by a lack of wage gains, while continued safety bids also kept yields from climbing. Labor Department data showed U.S. nonfarm payrolls increased by a larger-than-expected 292,000 last month. The unemployment rate held steady at a 7-1/2-year low of 5 percent even as more people entered the labor force, a sign of confidence in the job market.
