- OAT yields are up 1-3bp with the longer end similarly underperforming. The
2s30s spread is 2bp wider.
- BTPs have traded broadly inline with core EGBs. Cash yields are 2-3bp higher.
- Supply this morning came from Germany (Bubills, EUR5.6bn) and the Netherlands
(DTCs, EUR3.71bn).
- Focus this week will be on the ECB meeting on Thursday. Given the policy
