Little SPGB Widening Pressure Ahead Of Sanchez’s Announcement

EGBS
HomepageBond Market NewsBulletMarketsFixed Income Bullets

Little in the way of widening pressure for SPGBs ahead of Spanish PM Sanchez’s announcement surrounding his potential resignation (due 11:00 local/10:00 London).

  • The lack of meaningful SPGB underperformance can be identified in the tight range seen in the 10-Year PGB/SPGB spread in the time since the news of Sanchez's potential resignation (the spread is only a couple of bp tighter over the last few sessions).
  • Back on Thursday of last week we highlighted a few potential explainers for the lack of SPGB widening pressure after news of the impending decision broke:
  • Sanchez’s already marginalised political position.
  • The market may not believe that he is likely to step down, with confirmation of his departure required to generate a widening impulse for SPGBs. Subsequent government formation may prove tricky under another leader given the fractured nature of Spanish politics.
  • A continued focus on impending ECB easing.
  • Our political risk team has provided further colour on the Spanish political situation here.
