GILT SUMMARY
GILT SUMMARY: Gilts drifted lower over the course of the day, with little
immediate reaction from the release before midday of `no deal` Brexit planning
documents.
- Sep8 Gilt futures off 9 ticks at 123.23, having traded as high as 123.48.
- Yields are a little higher across the curve, though the 10-Yr has
underperformed, up 1.3bps at 1.285%, versus increases of 0.9bps for the 2-Yr 
and 1.1bps for the 5-Yr.
- Short Sterling futures were down slightly, with most contracts on the strip
down 1 tick.
- Little in the way of data Friday; most attention will be on Jackson Hole and
Brexit headlines after the release of no deal planning documents.
