JGBs Await 40-Year Supply, ACGB Curve Steepens Amid Syndication

BOND SUMMARY

A cheaper USD has allowed e-minis to creep higher, which has resulted in
some mild pressure on T-Notes. They last trade -0-02+ at 139-12+, already
through yesterday's lows. U.S. fiscal matters have stolen the limelight, with
little more to write home. Yields are marginally mixed across the curve in cash
trade. Eurodollars last seen -0.5 to +0.5 tick through the reds.

  • JGB futures re-opened lower, but have already recouped losses and trade at
    152.37, 6 ticks above settlement. The wings of the cash curve outperform,
    with little sign of long-end concession ahead of today's 40-Year JGB supply.
    No reaction to Japan's in-line services PPI.
  • Australian YM sits -1.0 & XM -3.5 at typing. Cash curve runs steeper
    and higher, catching up with overnight dynamics in Tsys and amid the ongoing
    ACGB '51 syndication. Bills last seen 1-2 ticks lower through the reds. The ABS
    will publish its weekly payroll jobs & wages data at the bottom of the hour.
    Elsewhere, Victoria Covid-19 situation remains in focus.
