BOND SUMMARY
BOND SUMMARY: It has been a pretty uneventful start to the session, with few
fresh headlines coming through. T-Notes have slipped and last trade -0-00+ at
139-06, cash Tsy yields sit marginally higher across the curve. Eurodollars last
seen unch. to -0.5 tick through the reds.
- JGB futures crept higher from the Tokyo re-open, as the timezone played
catch-up to movements in U.S. Tsys during NY hours. The contract trades at
151.90, off highs but still +3 ticks vs. settlement. Cash trade sees some
outperformance in 10s as we type. Japanese BoP current account surplus swelled
slightly more than exp. and focus now turns to the latest Eco Watchers Survey.
- Comments from Treasurer Frydenberg, who pointed to income support measures
running beyond Sep to be announced later this month, have been ignored by ACGBs.
YM & XM are unch. as we type. Yield curve has marginally bull flattened in cash
trade. Bills are unch. to +1 tick through the reds. An auction of A$2.0bn worth
of ACGB 2.50% 31 May 2030 was the only point of note on local calendar today.
