Firmer alongside Peers
GILTS
Gilts follow global peers higher at the open.
- Futures trade as high as 99.70, bulls unable to force a challenge of next resistance at 99.85, with the contract back to ~99.60
- Yields 1-2bp lower across the curve.
- SONIA futures remain underpinned but off best levels of the day, last flat to +2.5.
- BoE-dated OIS shows ~44bp of cuts through year end vs. ~45bp pre-gilt open.
- The BoE’s latest DMP survey headlines the UK calendar today, but expect macro matters to continue to dominate, with U.S. ADP, weekly jobless claims and ISM services data due.
- A reminder that BoE chief economist Pill is due to appear on an invite-only attendance panel at the Bruegel Annual Meetings (11:15BST). The panel is entitled "Quantitative tightening and financial stability". We are unsure whether there will be any media coverage.
