GILT AUCTION RESULTS
GILT AUCTION RESULTS: Gilt yields have pushed slightly higher this afternoon as
Corbyn calls for an election over Brexit "at the earliest opportunity", but
adding that in the result of a labour win additional time would be needed to
negotiate the withdrawal deal. 
- May's Brexit deal is expected to fail to pass in parliament on Tuesday, at
which point she has 3 days to state the governments 'plan B'.
- The Mar 19 Gilt future is down 15 ticks at 123.26, having traded in a range of
123.07-123.7 today. 
- Across the curve yields are set to close with little move from the days open,
moves ranging from 0.2bps up to 0.3bps up from the 2yr to 30yr maturities. 
- Short sterling is set to close to day 2 ticks down, with Cable a touch lower
at 1.2773, and the FTSE up 29.48 points at 6,935.61.   
- The debate on Brexit is set to continue in Parliament tomorrow, but not before
UK GDP data is released for November at 0930GMT.
