AUSSIE BONDS
AUSSIE BONDS: Late on Tuesday TD Securities recommended paying the Aussie
10-Year swap EFP at 14.75, with a target of 20.0 and a stop at 12.0.
- This involves buying a 10-Year Bond future (referenced at 97.130) alongside
paying 10-Year swaps.
- From a technical perspective TD notes that "the divergence of 10-Year Aussie
swap spreads from US 10-Year swap spreads has meant that our Aussie 10-Year swap
EFP model has not tracked actual swap EFPs well over the last year. Nonetheless
the model has continued to provide valuable signals at extremes. The
actual-model spread is once again near extremes with 10yr swap EFPs widening 1bp
since mid-May."
- On the positioning front TD notes that "most of the street is paid thanks to
Kanga supply, not on the potential for a rally in the outright."
- TD highlights the major risks to the position as "a sell off in the outright
or a pick-up in long dated Kanga demand."
