EGB SUMMARY: It has been mostly downhill for EGBs this morning. Initially, there
was the set up/concern for the 10Y Bund auction this morning but the biggest
decline came after the release of a particularly strong UK labour market report.
Gilt yields are 4-6bp higher across the yield curve and the 10Y Bund looks
strong with only a 1.4bp rise to 0.599%.
- The Bund auction was technically covered with 1.04x the bids for the available
amount for sale. Compared to history of technically uncovered 10Y auctions, this
was a success but clearly was not a good auction. As such, the market traded
slightly lower on the result.
- Flows have been muted. Sources reported early, light German cash market buying
and swap activity has been bullish at the front end but bearish beyond 10Y.
- The market now awaits the FOMC meeting where market strategists are fairly
evenly split between 4 hikes in 2018 within the dots or keeping 3 hikes.
- For a change, there has been minimal movement in country spreads amongst EGBs.
