AUSSIE BONDS
AUSSIE BONDS: A quiet start for Aussie Bonds, with futures holding around the
SYCOM closing levels, after the overnight session saw futures largely tracking
Tsys.
- Domestic 3-/10-Year cash yield spread unch. ~67.5bp last, with the AU/U.S.
10-Year yield spread at -47.0bp.
- Bills trade 1 tick higher to 1 tick lower, 3-Month BBSW fixed ~1.1bp higher
today.
- Focus today falls on the RBA MonPol decision. The RBA is set to leave its cash
rate unch. at 1.50%. Focus will quickly turn to the statement, with the Bank set
to make inference regarding its upcoming econ projections, due Friday.
Housing/consumer activity will be eyed. Q3 CPI won't alter the RBA's view, as it
had previously flagged the impact of one off drags on inflation in Q3, with the
core measures meeting the Bank's exp. Comments regarding the labour mkt will
provide more interest after the unemployment rate fell to 5.0%, although the
move was driven by a fall in the participation rate.
