Partially retracing yesterday's rally

BONDS

Core fixed income has been reversing some of yesterday's gains through the European morning session.

  • There have been little in the way of headlines or macro catalysts to trigger the moves. Instead, the moves seem to purely be partial retracements of the moves following the ECB meeting and the 30-year UST auction. 2s10s curves have steepened.
  • UK monthly activity data for July disappointed while IP data across the Eurozone has been mixed. The focus later today will be on US PPI while US wholesale inventories are also due.
