EGBS: Tight Range For Bund Futures This Morning, Bund Supply At 1030GMT

EGBS

Bund futures have traded in a 36 tick range this morning, currently -28 ticks at 132.05. Initial support in Bund futures is seen at 131.68/131.66 (circa 2.50% in yield), while resistance is 132.99 (Nov 19 high).

  • A Reuters source report suggesting President Putin is open to discussing a Ukraine ceasefire deal with Donald Trump weighed slightly on core FI ahead of the cash bond open, which was followed by the firmer-than-expected UK CPI report. However, these moves have mostly faded.
  • The German cash curve has bear steepened, with 30-year yields 2.5bps higher ahead of supply at 1030GMT/1130CET.
  • There was limited reaction to the ECB Q3 negotiated wage data, which jumped to 5.4% Y/Y (broadly in line with expectations).
  • 10-year peripheral spreads to Bunds are a little wider, with the 10-year BTP/Bund spread 1bp wider at 122bps.
  • The Bank of Spain said that recent floods are likely to reduce GDP by 20bps in Q4.
  • The remainder of today’s regional calendar is light, with de Guindos, Stournaras and Makhlouf scheduled to speak this evening.
