OI Points to Short Setting & Long Cover Across Most Of SOFR Futures Strip
STIR
OI data points to a mix of short setting and long cover during Friday’s weakness across most SOFR futures.
- The only exception came via apparent net long setting in SFRM4.
- Weakness across much of the strip came in the wake of slightly firmer-than-expected personal income data, while pressure in the long end (with an eye on a post-holiday supply deluge) may have provided some further spill over pressure.
- Fed Funds futures price ~32bp of cuts for this month’s meeting.
- Further out, ~98bp of cuts are priced through year end.
