OI Points To Mix Of Modest Long Setting & Short Cover On Monday

US TSY FUTURES

Yesterday’s uptick in Tsy futures and preliminary OI data point to modest net long setting in some contracts (TU, TY, UXY & WN) and limited net short cover in others (FV & US). The former provided the dominant positioning factor on the curve, but the net swing was contained.

  • The positioning move came in the wake of Friday’s notable short covering.
  • Spill overs from EGBs and block flow aided Monday’s rally, although Tsy futures volume was relatively subdued.
