Focus on early supplies ahead of FOMC

BUNDS
  • With attention turning to the awaited FOMC, German Bund stays in a tight opening range since the cash open.
  • Despite the Longer end underpinned, the curve leans bull steeper, just short of yesterday's high at 92.29
  • Nothing left in terms of tier 1 data for the session after the UK inflation beat on the open, which saw some algo reaction with Cable gaining 10 pips, but now back at pre data levels.
  • ALL EYES will of course be on the FOMC.
  • SUPPLIES: Early focus will be on UK 2035 £2.5bn (equates to 30k Gilts), German Bund 10yr EU5bn (equates 32k Bund), and an Italian 2 BTP Specialist split tap for a combined EU1.5bn, but shouldn't impact BTPs.
  • SPEAKERS: ECB Elderson, de Guindos, and US Powell presser
