OI Indicates Mix Of SOFR Positioning Swings On Wednesday

STIR

The mix of preliminary open interest data and twist flattening of the SOFR strip point to the following positioning swings on Wednesday:

  • Whites: Long cover seemed to be the dominant force.
  • Reds: Apparent long cover once again seemed to dominate on a pack basis, although short setting was seemingly seen in SFRH5
  • Greens: The dominant factor for the pack seemed to be long setting, although that was only really evidenced in SFRH6. It is hard to be surre of SFRU5 & SFRZ6 positioning moves owing to their unchanged price status on the day.
  • Blues: Light long setting was seemingly observed across most of the pack.
