Covid infections quickly reached its peak after a Covid policy shift, with the economy entering a post-Covid recovery period. But the impact of the pandemic remains far-reaching. Currently, the foundation for economic recovery is not yet solid, and it will take time to fully restore production and social order to normal. The central government said restoring and expanding consumption should be prioritized. Income and expectation are the basis of consumption. In the coming period, relevant policies should focus more on increasing household income and improving market expectations. (Caixin)
JAPAN, FEB, F JIBUN BANK MANUFACTURING PMI 47.7; PRELIM 47.4; JAN 48.9
Latest data pointed to continually deteriorating activity in the Japanese manufacturing sector midway through the first quarter of 2023. Both new orders and production levels, which make up 55% of the headline PMI figure, fell at the fastest pace since July 2020 as weak domestic demand and a global economic slowdown hindered sales and output volumes.

MARKETS
US TSYS: Marginally Cheaper In Asia, Regional Data Drives Contained Two-Way Flows
TYM3 deals at 111-14, -0-07, just below the middle of its 0-06 range on volume of ~99K.
- Cash Tsys sit ~1bp cheaper across the major benchmarks.
- In early dealing Asia-Pac participants faded the month end flow-induced rally seen late in the NY session, also seemingly looking through the weak Consumer Confidence and MNI Chicago PMI prints.
- A recovery from session lows was facilitated by a bid in ACGBs in lieu of softer than expected monthly inflation data out of Australia.
- Gains were capped, with light pressure then see, in the wake of firmer than expected Chinese PMI data.
- In Europe today regional German and then national CPI, as well as final European Manufacturing PMIs headline. Further out U.S. Construction Spending and the ISM Manufacturing Survey will cross. We will also hear from Minneapolis Fed President Kashkari.
JGBS: Holding Firmer, Just
Events offshore largely drove JGBs on Wednesday. Initially, we saw cross-market spill over surrounding Australian data, as well as potential short trimming in lieu of reduced expectations for meaningful BoJ policy shifts in the immediate term (outside of YCC tweaks), support the JGB space in the Tokyo morning. Firmer than expected Chinese PMI data helped to cap the bid ahead of the lunch break, before applying some light pressure early in the Tokyo afternoon. That move extended into the close, with a lack of overt drivers present.
- Futures finished +4, comfortably shy of best levels. Technically, the contract is in a holding pattern.
- Cash JGBs sit little changed to ~1bp richer late on, with 7s leading, aided by the bid in futures. 10-Year JGB yields continue to hover incrementally below the BoJ’s YCC cap of 0.50%.
- BoJ board member Nakagawa stuck to the BoJ’s central line re: the need for continued monetary easing at present, while outlining question marks re: the scale of broad wage hikes that will be implemented in the immediate term and pointing to a fairly concentrated inflationary spike, which he expects to moderate soon.
- 10-Year JGB supply, an appearance from BoJ’s Takata and Q4 corporate performance data headline the domestic docket tomorrow.
AUSSIE BONDS: CPI & GDP Data Spark Rally, RBA Terminal Pricing Pulls Back
The market moving potential of today’s data didn’t disappoint with downside surprises from GDP and CPI sparking a short-end led ACGB rally as it threw weight behind the RBA’s forecast that inflation peaked in Q422. YM +9.0 & XM +6.5 at the close. Cash ACGBs close near session highs 6-9bp richer. AU/US cash yield differential tightens 6bp to -14bp, its lowest level since the RBA’s February meeting.
- Swaps strengthen with rates 7-9bp lower with the 3s10s curve 2bp steeper.
- Bills were +6-10bp richer (except IRH3) through the reds, with the back end of the whites leading.
- RBA-dated OIS pricing softens 7-15bp for meetings beyond May, with the front meetings -1 to -4bp. Terminal rate pricing closes at ~4.18% versus 4.35% yesterday.
- While substantial, it is important to remember that monthly CPI is volatile. Rather than a proper monthly series it is a rolling release measure, with the first month of the quarter only updating 62% of the basket.
- While largely ignored, China’s manufacturing PMIs beat. Commodity prices have to some extent factored in China’s reopening, but the RBA will be aware of the typical relationship between China PMIs, commodity demand, the terms of trade, and ultimately Australia’s nominal growth.
- With the market scaling back tightening expectations, ACGBs appear set for a period of outperformance. Nonetheless, the outright direction is still likely to be determined by events abroad.
AUSSIE BONDS: ACGB Nov-32 Auction Results
The Australian Office of Financial Management (AOFM) sells A$1.2bn of the 1.75% 21 November 2032 Bond, issue #TB165:

- Bidders 61 (prev. 39), successful 22 (prev. 21), allocated in full 15 (prev. 16)
NZGBS: Mid-Session Reversal On Aussie Data
NZGBs reversed morning weakness in line with the post-data rally in ACGBs. Trans-Tasman downside surprises in Q4 GDP and more importantly, monthly CPI, sparked a short-end led rally in ACGBs as it threw weight behind the RBA’s forecast that inflation peaked in Q422. NZGBs followed suit with yields 4-5bp lower at the close, versus 4-5bp higher in early trade. The 2/10 cash curve was 1bp steeper. There was no real reaction to firmer than expected Chinese PMI data.
- NZGBs added to yesterday’s outperformance versus U.S. Tsys with the NZ/US cash yield differential narrowing 9bp for the 2-year and 5bp for the 10-year. The NZ-AU 10-year differential did however widen 3bp, unwinding yesterday’s narrowing.
- Swaps close 4-7bp lower, implying a slight narrowing in swap spreads, with the 2s10s curve 1bp flatter.
- RBNZ dated OIS ignored trans-Tasman moves to close a little firmer across meetings. April meeting pricing remains at 38bp of tightening with terminal OCR pricing back close to the RBNZ’s projected OCR peak of 5.50% at 5.47%.
- Today's local data was weak. CoreLogic’s house price index sank -8.9% Y/Y, the steepest annual decline since 2009, while January Building Permits recorded another M/M fall. Some rebound had been expected after the sharp decline in multi-unit consents in December. Today’s data pre-dated much of the recent severe weather.
- Elsewhere, the Treasury announced the appointment of JLMs for the syndication of the new May-30 NZGB, with expectations for the launch to take place next week, subject to market conditions.
EQUITIES: China/HK Shares Surge On China PMI Beats
Regional equities received a shot in the arm from the stronger than expected China PMI prints. Most of the benefit has been seen in terms of HK and China related shares, but most major indices are tracking higher at this stage. US futures are away from worst levels, with Eminis back to around flat.
- The HSI is up by 3.4% at this stage, with the high beta Tech sub-index +5% for the session so far. China mainland markets are seeing a more muted response, but the CSI 300 is still +1.50%. Northbound stock connect flows are positive, +6.5bn yuan, the first positive day of inflows since last Tuesday.
- The PMI beats point to stronger near term activity. This comes ahead of the upcoming People's Congress, which begins this weekend.
- Other markets have seen much more modest gains, with the Nikkei 225 +0.20% at this stage, while the ASX200 is around flat. Disappointing Q4 GDP data and concerns around slowed domestic spending weighing at the margins.
- Indian shares are higher, the Nifty +0.65% as it looks to move back above the 200-day MA.
GOLD: Prices Stabilising But February Was Very Negative
Gold prices are up 0.2% during APAC trading after rising 0.5% on Tuesday. This left them down 5.2% in February as Fed hawkishness and sticky US inflation weighed on the yellow metal. It is now around $1830.55/oz, close to the intraday high. The USD index is currently flat.
- Trend conditions remain bearish for gold and it continues to trade under the 50-day EMA. The next key level to watch is $1800 followed by $1787.30. A stronger-for-longer Fed pushes up the USD and Treasury yields which weigh on non-interest bearing bullion.
- Later today the February Global S&P manufacturing PMIs print and the US manufacturing ISM, which is forecast to rise to 48, and construction data. The Fed’s Kashkari is participating in a moderated discussion.
OIL: Crude Higher On China Demand Optimism Following PMIs
Oil has been steadily rising again since last week. Prices are up 0.5% during the APAC session after rising close to 1.5% on Tuesday, as China’s PMIs came in stronger than expected. WTI is currently trading around $77.45/bbl and Brent $83.90, both are close to their intraday highs. The USD index is down slightly.
- Brent has exceeded its 50-day simple moving average again and approaching the 100-day. WTI is approaching the 50-day MA, as it has underperformed Brent due to rising US crude stocks. WTI short-term support is at $73.80, the February 22 low. Moving average studies are in a bear-mode, thus the risks to WTI are pointing to the downside.
- API reported another large crude inventory build in the US of 6.2mn barrels after 9.89mn the previous week. Distillate fell 0.3mn and gasoline -1.8mn. The data reflects continued refining issues. The official EIA data is released later today. WTI reached an intraday low of $76.55 following this data and ahead of the robust February China PMI data, which bolstered commodities generally.
- Later today the February Global S&P manufacturing PMIs print and the US manufacturing ISM, which is forecast to rise to 48, and construction data. The Fed’s Kashkari is participating in a moderated discussion.
FOREX: USD Pressured, Regional Equities Firm Post China PMI
The greenback is pressured in Asia today, higher than expected Chinese PMI data saw regional equities firm and US Equity futures pared early losses weighing on the USD.
- Kiwi is the strongest performer in the G-10 space at the margins. NZD/USD prints at $0.6215/20, ~0.5% firmer today. The pair was pressured in the initial aftermath of weak Australian data, however losses were pared as risk appetite grew post China PMIs. The 20-day EMA at $0.6266 presents the next upside resistance.
- AUD/USD is ~0.3% firmer, printing $0.6750/55. AUD was pressured in the immediate aftermath of softer than expected Jan CPI and Q4 GDP. Support came in below $0.67, and the pair extended gains rallies in regional equities boosted risk flows. The pair sits a touch below yesterday's high at $0.6757.
- Yen is softer with risk-on flows marginally weighing. USD/JPY has observed a narrow 30 pip range and moves have been limited for the majority of the session.
- EUR and GBP are benefitting from the greenback weakness, both are ~0.2% firmer.
- Cross asset wise; S&P500 futures are flat having been down as much as 0.3%, and the Hang Seng is ~3% firmer. BBDXY is ~0.1% softer, US 10 Year Treasury Yields are ~1bp firmer.
- In Europe today regional German CPI and European Manufacturing PMIs headline. Further out US Construction Spending and the ISM Manufacturing Survey will cross.
