BOND SUMMARY
BOND SUMMARY: It has been a quiet morning so far for bond markets, with little
follow through from yesterday's ECB meeting.
- Yesterday the ECB meeting was largely as expected. The ECB are concerned about
inflation and the committee are looking at options for a package which is likely
to be announced at the September meeting. The meeting was largely in line with
analysts and market consensus. In terms of analyst reviews, there are even more
overwhelmingly leaning towards forecasting a September package now.
- This afternoon will see the first print of US Q2 GDP along with the revisions
which could stretch back over the past five years. This will be one of the last
data points ahead of the FOMC meeting next week.
- TY1 futures are unch today at 127-09 with 10y UST yields down -1.3bp at 2.069%
