US TSY FUTURES CLOSE
US TSY FUTURES CLOSE: Higher, but well off early session highs. Geopol concerns
never far from front burner these days, EGBs/Tsys traded broadly higher coming
into the session on concerted safe haven bid for risk-off assets following N
Korea missile launch that flew over northern Japan. Tsy futures gradually worked
off session highs as USD bounced off lows, higher vs. Yen, equities rebounded
and Gold traded lower late. Current futures levels:
* Sep Ultra bonds up 8/32 at 169-12 (169-05L/171-00H)
* Sep 30-yr Bond futures up 8/32 at 157-00 (156-26L/158-04H)
* Sep 10-yr futures up 6.5/64 at 127-06.5 (127-01L/127-19H)
* Sep 5-yr futures up 4.5/32 at 118-25.5 (118-21.75L/118-31.75H)
* Sep 2-yr futures up 1.25/32 at 108-09 (108-08L/108-10.5H)
