STIR
STIR: After North American trading began there has been continued digestion of
yesterday's Fed hike.
- Earlier today, we noted that most Red, Green and Blue Eurodollar futures
contracts were at their highest levels since October 2016. However, these gains
have since been reversed with Greens and Blues now unchanged since yesterdays
changed. The curve has also flattened in the White and Red area with the U9 and
Z9 contracts seeing the biggest falls, down 4 ticks and other White and Red
contracts also down up to 3.5 ticks.
- The Bank of England left rates unchanged and the Short Sterling strip remains
around 1-2 ticks higher in general, with the M9-Z9 area seeing a slightly larger
move 2.5-3 ticks higher. The Bank pointed to increased Brexit risks leading to
an uncertain policy horizon ahead.
- The Euribor strip remains largely unchanged since our last update with Whites
and Reds largely flat on the day and Greens and Blues 2.5-2.5 ticks higher.
