Cheaper After Reversing Post-PPI Gains

US TSYS

TYM3 deals at 115-16+, +0-02, in line with late NY levels.

  • Cash tsys sit 1-6bps cheaper across the major benchmarks, the curve has bear steepened.
  • Tsys firmed as PPI printed weaker than expectations and Initial Jobless Claims were higher than expected.
  • Firmer equities as risk sentiment rose in the wake of the US data, S&P500 was up ~1.4%, and pre 30-Year auction concession weighed on Tsys through the NY session.
  • The latest 30-Year auction was on the screws, bid/cover ratio was in line with the previous auction as was indirect take up.
  • FOMC dated OIS price ~18bp hike into the May meeting with a terminal rate of 5%. There are ~70bps of cuts priced for 2023.
