  • See here,here and here plus initial analysis here about how the news outweighed dovish comments from the BoE’s Bailey.
  • EGBs meanwhile have been supported by a sharp rolling over in oil futures and equities also fading.
  • In data, the German PMIs were stronger than consensus but the underlying details were still weak, keeping focus on tomorrow's IFO survey. The French PMI was weaker than expected, while the rest of the Eurozone once again outperformed the region's two largest economies.
