US EURODLR FUTURES: After a weak start to the week, Eurodollar futures began to

move higher in early US trading on Tuesday, largely fuelled by a drop in the 3m

LIBOR rate, but also against a backdrop of uncertainty as the market awaited the

outcome of the UK parliament's first Brexit vote. A marginally softer than

expected CPI print also contributed to the push higher.

- The UK parliament voted against PM May's Brexit deal on Tuesday around

19:15GMT and the Eurodollar strip was largely rangebound through Wednesday and

Thursday.

- Data on Friday was soft with both Empire manufacturing and manufacturing

production weaker than expected, while a poor Canadian existing home sales print

sandwiched between the two releases did not help sentiment.

- Greens and Blues have just broken above their recent ranges, hitting their

highest levels since the brief move higher on Jan3/4. Excluding these two days,

these contracts were at their highest levels since the second half of 2017.

- Note that the H9 contract expires with Monday's 3m LIBOR settle. All quarterly

colours will shift forward one contract.
