BUNDS: SWAPS: Widening Episodes Remain Limited, Swap Spreads Hold Around Lows
BUNDS
Modest ASW tightening today, keeping spreads around cycle/all-time lows.
- Long end leads the move, with Buxl vs. 3-month Euribor ASW ~1bp tighter.
- The medium-term spread tightening drivers that we have flagged on many occasions seemingly remain intact.
- Long end spreads are seemingly the most susceptible to further tightening given sensitivity to issuance/fiscal policy, alongside increased risks of fiscal loosening/political paralysis.
