STIR
STIR: It has been an extremely quiet day for STIR markets.
- The short sterling strip has risen 1-2 ticks on the day, retracing some of
yesterday's moves. Yesterday, PM May survived a no confidence vote (as widely
expected) and there has not been much in terms of headline trading today. The
data calendar in the UK has also been pretty light with the BoE's credit
conditions survey the only data release of the day.
- In Europe it has been an even quieter day with the vast majority of the
Euribor futures strip unchanged today, with a couple of contracts 0.5 ticks
lower. Again, there have been no real notable headlines or data releases in
Europe (other than the confirmation of the final CPI print in line with flash).
- The Eurodollar strip has moved 1-1.5 ticks higher on the day. Quarles is the
only Fed speaker scheduled for the day with the Philly Fed and claims data the
only notable data releases.
