Little to report for the core global...>

BOND SUMMARY
BOND SUMMARY: Little to report for the core global FI space overnight. An uptick
in S&P futures & solid Chinese Caixin services PMI print allowed Tsys to move
back from best levels, with T-Notes sticking to a tight range, last +0-00+ at
132-04+. Yields are marginally mixed across the curve, promoting very modest
twist steepening. Eurodollar futures sit unch.-1.0 ticks higher thru the reds.
- AU bonds see YM -2.5 & XM +1.0, as the front end underperforms in the wake of
an in line with exp. AU GDP print, which dispelled some of the more pessimistic
views that were generated by the early partials, allowing the AUD to build on
yesterday's advance. Headline GDP was still lower than the RBA anticipated in
its most recent SoMP, with the Y/Y print registering the slowest growth rate
seen since the GFC.
- JGB futures +5 vs. settlement, easing back from overnight levels with the long
end underperforming in cash trade after yesterday's twist flattening, that was
likely driven by demand for longer dated cash bonds. N.B. today's
underperformance may have been driven by some concession ahead of tomorrow's
30-Year supply.
