US TSYS
US TSYS: A sedate Asia session for Tsys, with e-minis pushing through
yesterday's highs on the back of solid enough U.S. tech earnings, spillover from
NY trade and a bid in crude, while little Tsy market reaction was seen on the
back of U.S. President Tump's latest round of Chinese sabre rattling, nor on the
back of the Chinese PMI data. T-Notes last +0-03+ at 139-02+, yields 0.8-1.8bp
richer across the curve, 7s outperform at the margin, with swap spreads
marginally mixed, but little changed.
- To recap, the Fed left the Fed funds target range unch., with no dissents
(10-0), the IOER also unch. (despite a fair few looking for a nudge higher) &
the Fed stressed its ongoing commitment to limitless QE. Elsewhere, our policy
team highlighted that Chair Powell is readying new credit facilities & vowed to
use the full range of tools to combat the COVID-19 slump.
- Eurodollar futures unchanged to 1.0 tick lower through the reds, EDM0 & U0 saw
a couple of small sell clips emerge in Asia.
- A reminder that month-end extensions are notable, while rebalancing estimates
favour flows into bonds and out of equities.
