BOND SUMMARY: EGB/GILT SUMMARY: Very little to report on, this morning.
-Volumes and volatility have been way below averages with very little of note on

-EGB's and particularly the Bund have stayed within ranges, and early prices
action have lacked any conviction other way. 
-Gilt have been unaffected from the better GBP selling in early trading, with
upside in the UK 10yr staying capped, with the contract seeing favoured selling,
albeit in super light volumes. 
-Attention is on the EU and their extension decision, but given the headline
hitting our screen today: EU DIPLOMATS TO MEET AGAIN ON MONDAY OR TUESDAY ON
BREXIT DELAY. We'll have to wait a little longer.
