US TSYS SUMMARY
US TSYS SUMMARY: Driven by dovish comments from ECB President Draghi and a
six-month low in the German ZEW expectations component, benchmark 10y UST yields
have fallen to their lowest level since September 2017 with the 10y yield
falling 5.0bp today to 2.045%.
- The downbeat comments have put further spotlight on the FOMC meeting tomorrow.
The bar is very high for the Fed to meet the very dovish expectations currently
priced into markets. The first hurdle will be to remove the word "patient" from
the statement, there will also be focus on how many of the dots are looking for
cuts in coming years. The key question will be how the Fed answer the question
of the disconnect between the Fed's view and the market pricing.
