Modest Cheapening In Asia, Tight Ranges In Play Alongside Low Volume

US TSYS
HomepageBond Market NewsBulletMarketsFixed Income News

Cash Tsys are marginally cheaper on the day as we work towards the end of the Asia-Pac session, running 0.5-2.0bp cheaper across the cash curve, with the belly leading the weakness at the margin. TYM3 is -0-05 at 114-12, on light volume of ~51K, printing just above the base of its contained 0-06+ Asia-Pac range.

  • Wednesday’s (relatively limited) weakness in the front end of the Tsy & UK Gilt curves, as well as the wider pressure seen on the German curve and general bid for broader equities (the major Asia-Pac benchmark indices are mixed) since Wednesday’s Asia-Pac close were the likely sources of underlying pressure for the space, while a leg of cheapening in JGBs (which moderated from extremes) will have done the move no harm.
  • There wasn’t anything in the way of tier 1 event risk slated during Asia-Pac hours and we didn’t get any meaningful macro news flow.
  • Looking ahead, inflation data from Germany (state & national) and Spain will provide some interesting reference points in European hours. Further out, weekly jobless claims data and final Q4 GDP & PCE prints provide the highlights of a limited NY data docket, while Fedspeak will come from Kashkari, Collins & Barkin.
