OI Indicates Mixed SOFR Positioning Swings On Tuesday
STIR
The combination of Tuesday’s price action and preliminary open interest data indicates the following re: SOFR positioning:
- Net short cover was the dominant theme in the white pack, although that was concentrated in SFRZ3.
- The reds appear to have seen a mix of net fresh longs and net long cover, with the former seemingly dominating.
- The greens saw fresh shorts added on net.
- The blues saw a mix of fresh shorts set and long cover.
