AUSSIE BONDS: Bond futures ticked higher in early SFE dealing, with the 3- &
10-Year contracts breaching their respective SYCOM highs set Friday. Contracts
moved back from best levels at the CME Globex re-open as Tsy futures moved lower
on the back of the optimistic rhetoric from U.S. President Trump & Chinese
counterpart Xi noted over the weekend re: trade. Contracts then picked up ahead
of settlement, finishing 3.5-4.5 ticks higher at today's early close. YM/XM
closed at 52.50, 1.0 flatter.
- Bills closed 1-3bp higher in the whites & reds, on low volume. RBA dealt
A$2.357bn worth of 37-Day reverse repos at 2.193%, back from the 2.428% seen in
Friday's 24-Day ops.
- Lower tier AU data due throughout the week, so broader risk appetite likely to
set the tone for the space.
