EUR Market Wrap
CREDIT UPDATE
- 2y/10y bunds are -3bp/-5bp with our DM team flagging a rally on the back of on the back of the Spanish CPI data, with the move then extending as German regional CPI readings pointed to downside risk in this afternoon’s national flash reading. Also noting that PM Sachez will not resign as Spanish PM though there has been little feedthrough to EGBs.
- Main/XO are -0.7bp/-3.2bp with FICM showing €IG/€HY at +0.2bp/+2.6bp though accounting for swap spreads we see slightly less widening vs. govies. TMT/Energy seem to be underperforming slightly. Main curve mover is Philips at up to 16bps tighter on legal settlement progress.
- SXXP is +0.3% with Tech, Banks and T&L the sectors in the red with losses of up to 0.5%. €IG movers include Philips +47%, AIA Group +6%, CPI Property +6%, Deutsche Bank -6%.
