Aussie Bond futures have traded in a...>

AUSSIE BONDS: Aussie Bond futures have traded in a limited fashion during SFE

trade, consolidating their SYCOM gains. YM +2.0, XM +2.5, leaving YM/XM at 35.5

and the cash equivalent at 33.6bp.

- Little in the way of local/broader news flow to drive matters, so price action

has been limited.

- Bills sit 1 tick lower to 3 ticks higher through the reds, allowing some

flattening of the strip.

- The AOFM issuance schedule looks a little light again next week.

- On the broader issuance front it is worth remembering that New South Wales Tsy

Corp. ('TCORP') mandated banks to arrange a series of fixed income investor

meetings starting Oct. 31. An AUD Sustainability bond transaction may follow,

subject to market conditions. Elsewhere, we heard that Virgin Australia is

considering A$ issuance, and will roadshow from Monday, while Woolworths has

mandated banks to hold investor meetings, which may result in A$ issuance.

- An address from RBA Governor Lowe and Australian CPI headline next week's

local docket.
