EGBs-GILTS CASH CLOSE: Rally Fades With Supply Eyed

The Bund and Gilt curves bull flattened Monday, but yields ended well above the session's lowest levels as equities rebounded. Large supply and US CPI Tuesday also presenting some near-term risk.

• Tuesday will see big issuance: E30bln in euro-denominated supply (including EU syndication), and GBP6bln in 2039 Gilt syndication. Not to mention large US supply today/Tuesday.
• Periphery spreads tightened; Italy 10-Yr spreads have retraced most of last week's widening.
• As expected, the UK authorities announced they were going ahead with plans to end COVID-19 restrictions in England on 19 July.
• Otherwise, no bond supply today and nothing new from ECB speakers.
