Late SOFR/Eurodollar/Treasury Option Roundup

US TSYS
Another volume challenged session, accts already sidelined prior to all the data, and not thinking too deep ahead next week's holiday closures. Consistent themes: more interest in buying upside calls since last week's surprise CPI miss put year end policy pivot back on the radar. Wed's underlying rally despite stronger than expected retail sales failed to generate much follow through derivatives trading.
