BOND SUMMARY
BOND SUMMARY: Little to write home at this point in the Asia-Pac session, with
market closures in China, Japan and South Korea limiting activity. Headline flow
has been very light this morning. The dynamic observed in late NY hours has
carried over into Asia, with U.S. equity index futures creeping higher. Core FI
have held tight ranges.
- T-Notes trade -0-02+ at 138-28+, with cash Tsys closed. Eurodollar futures sit
0.5-1.0 tick lower through the reds.
- Turning to Australia, YM unch. & XM -1.5 as we type. Curve runs steeper in
cash trade, with yields sitting 0.2-1.6bp higher. Bills last seen unch. to -1
tick through the reds. Final CBA services/composite PMIs and the AiG PCI print
came in on the softer side, although the weekly consumer confidence reading from
ANZ-Roy Morgan edged higher. The focus turns to a monetary policy decision from
the RBA, due later in the day.
