JGB futures pushed through the early session...>

JGBS: JGB futures pushed through the early session highs, aided by the

declaration of the first coronavirus case in NY state in the U.S., followed up

by a statement from BoJ Governor Kuroda noting that "global financial and

capital markets

have been unstable recently with growing uncertainties about the outlook for

economic activity due to the spread of the novel coronavirus. The Bank of Japan

will closely monitor future developments, and will strive to provide ample

liquidity and ensure stability in financial markets through appropriate market

operations and asset purchases."

- Futures have moved to fresh highs, last +20, 3 ticks off peaks.

- Shift in yields is fairly parallel across the curve, although that excludes

2s, which are the notable outperformer, with a focus on central bank easing

globally.

- Little deviation was seen in the final m'fing PMI vs. flash.
