CREDIT UPDATE

 

  • Bunds closed 5-6bp wider at 2.07%/2.14% - EGBs performed poorly with renewed OAT spread widening amid heavy French and Spanish supply weighing in the morning followed by post-ISM weakness which failed to hold.

  • SXXP/SPX ended -0.9%/-0.2% at 516pts/5700pts. €IG's biggest risers/fallers included H Lundbeck A/S (+4%), Stora Enso Oyj (+4%), PACCAR Inc (+3%), DXC Technology Co (+3%), Bouygues SA (-5%), Sartorius AG (-5%), Stellantis NV (-4%).
  • SX5E/SPX futures are +0.2%/flat. Equity sentiment has been mostly positive in the region, with tech outperforming. UST futures have traded in narrow ranges throughout the session. Oil has been steady but is still up strongly for the week on Middle East tensions.
