Holding Away From Lows On Equity Downtick

AUSSIE BONDS

YM & XM continue to deal a little above Sydney lows, -7.0 & -8.0 at typing, respectively, with little reaction to the well-received round of ACGB Apr-25 supply. Wider cash ACGB trade sees 6.0-8.5bp of cheapening, with the early bear steepening theme maintained. EFPs have pushed a touch wider. Bills sit 2-9bp cheaper on the day through the reds.

  • The previously flagged move lower in the wider equity space, centring on U.S. tech sector woes and the potential for fresh Sino-U.S. tensions, is providing some support for ACGBs early on Friday.
  • The weekly AOFM issuance slate will cross at the top of the hour, although the presence of Tuesday’s Federal Budget may skew the issuance profile for the week.
