Looking ahead to MNI Connect with Catherine Mann

GILTS

Gilts are underperforming Bunds this morning, with gilt futures down a little on the day while Bund futures move a bit higher.

  • 7+ gilt yields now sit around 20bp lower than the post-MPC peak seen on Thursday with differences at the front-end closer to 10bp.
  • Today will see MPC member Catherine Mann join a webinar hosted by MNI. There is a link to register to join here. Recall that Mann was one of three members to vote in favour of a 50bp hike last week and any comments she makes about the change in forward guidance will be of particular interest to markets.
  • This week will also see the release of May inflation data (Wednesday at 7:00BST). We will also receive June data ahead of the August MPC meeting, but even so there will be huge attention to the data release this week.
  • 2y yields up 4.3bp today at 2.230%, 5y yields up 3.7bp at 2.236%, 10y yields up 2.9bp at 2.525% and 30y yields up 3.5bp at 2.700%.
  • 2s10s down -1.3bp today at 29.6bp and 10s30s up 0.6bp at 17.5bp.
