OI Points To Little Movement In Positioning Ahead Of CPI

US TSY FUTURES

Yesterday’s twist flattening of the Tsy futures curve and preliminary OI data points to a mix of net long cover, long setting and short cover.

  • Overall, positioning adjustments were relatively modest, with the largest DV01 equivalent swing coming via net long setting in WN futures.
  • We still believe that a ‘hawkish’ CPI surprise presents the greatest risk to prevailing market positioning, raising the bar for dovish market interpretation of today’s data.
