BoE-Dated OIS A Touch Softer In The Day

STIR

BoE-dated OIS is a touch softer today, although the moves are contained (~4bp softer at most at typing), recording the biggest such move vs. yesterday’s closing levels amongst UK, EUR & U.S. central bank pricing.

  • We suggested earlier that the UK rates curve should be better insulated from the cross-currents derived from yesterday’s BoC hike (which caught most off guard), purely based on the market’s assumption when it comes to the distance of travel before terminal rate levels are reached (which lies ~100bp from prevailing policy rate levels at present).
  • Terminal rate pricing remains shy of the post-CPI hawkish extremes.
  • A quick reminder that the local docket remains thin for the remainder of the week, with BoE speak and tier 1 UK economic data returning after the weekend.
