STIR: Notable Swing In SFRZ4 Positioning Seen Again On Monday
STIR
OI data points to a mix of net short setting and long cover during Monday’s downtick in SOFR futures.
- SFRZ4 saw the largest positioning swing once again, with nearly 80K fresh net shorts set.
- Friday’s reduction in net OI in the contract was seemingly driven by positioning unwinds surrounding the expiration of the Dec ’24 (Z4) options contracts.
- It’s harder to pinpoint a clear driver for Monday’s positioning move.
- Other notable positioning swings came via net long cover in SFRZ5 and net short setting in SFRZ7.
