US TSY/RECAP
US TSY/RECAP: Monday's session represented a quiet start to the week, as the
space drifted off session lows into the US afternoon and the curve ground lower.
- This came after Tsys opened lower, as markets downplayed the US-led missile
strike on Syria. 
- US retail sales data came in stronger than expected, which saw the space
revisit lows before bouncing as fast money accounts covered. Comments from Fed's
Dudley, Bostic, Kashkari & Kaplan gave little impetus to the space, although the
usually dovish Kashkari sounded a little more upbeat.
- Decent corporate issuance was noted.
- The Eurodollar strip finished little changed on the day.
- Light two-way swap flow was observed with with spreads running mildly tighter.
Decent Eurodollar put buying targeting Dec 18 hikes was also seen.
- T-Notes last at 120.14+, US 10-Year yields last at 2.827%.
