OI Points To Mix Of Short Setting & Long Cover On Friday

US TSY FUTURES

The combination of Friday's weakness in Tsy futures and preliminary OI data points to a mix of net short setting (TU, FV, UXY & WN futures) and long cover (TY & US futures) with the latter having slightly more impact in net curve DV01 equivalent terms.

  • This came as markets continued to unwind Fed rate cut premium in a headline light session.
  • Comments from ECB's Schanbel provided some pressure during pre-NY trade.
  • A deeper overview of positioning in Tsy futures can be found in our weekly CFTC CoT round up.
