A quiet day for EGBs in terms of........>

EGB SUMMARY: A quiet day for EGBs in terms of headlines/data flow/speakers,

ultimately a range-trading story of risk-off turning to risk-on. Periphery

spreads failed to return to earlier lows, but Bunds are continuing to sell off.

- Equities bouncing off lows and eventually out of day's range to the upside has

been the catalyst, though little in the way of headline drivers.

- UK/EU talks on future trading relationship revealed nothing new, but as MNI's

exclusive put it this morning, little was expected anyway (and the E.U. may be

flexible, possibly accepting level playing field divergence).
