Rally Slows With Slight Paring Of Risk-Off and 3Y Supply Ahead

US TSYS
  • Treasuries continue to see a solid bid on the day, with the day's net risk off sentiment (S&P e-mini off lows but still -0.5% on the day) adding to spillover from well-received European supply early.
  • Cash yields sit between 4.5-5.5bps lower on the day, with the front end seeing a little more support with a move off lows in equities plus attention on the upcoming 3Y sale.
  • TYM4 sits within 1-2 ticks off an earlier high of 109-21, with cumulative volumes lagging recent averages for the time of data having only just ticked over 1mln.
  • Resistance is seen at 110-06 (Apr 4 high) but a bearish trend structure remains with support at 109-00 before 108-25+ (Fibo projection).
  • Fed Funds futures have seen a build in cut expectations from new recent lows of 61bps for 2024 overnight, but at 67bps remain below the 75bps median FOMC dot. There is a cumulative 15bp of cuts priced for June with July only just fully priced.
  • Tomorrow's US CPI report (preview here) and FOMC minutes remain firmly in focus.
