drew questions/worry re: what will come after the impending Sino-U.S. phase 1
trade deal, as well as a seemingly continued hard line stance from the Trump

- Aussie Bond futures have edged higher in Sydney trade, YM +2.5, XM +5.5. Bills
unch. to +2 ticks thru reds. Aussie PM Morrison noted that the "bushfire outlook
continues to be more benign" and that the country will "spend as much as it
takes" to help fire victims, per BBG. Very strong cover ratio (6.5375x) was seen
at the latest auction of ACGB 2.75% 21 Apr 2024, which saw A$400mn offered.
- JGB futures have recovered from Tokyo lows on the back of a solid 5-Year JGB
auction, allowing the mild pre-auction concession, that was driven by the belly
of the cash curve, to unwind. Contract last +11 on the day. Elsewhere, BoJ
Governor Kuroda went over old ground in his latest address.
