BUNDS: Some Cash led selling interest on the Open

BUNDS
  • Some early selling interest, potentially Cash led has pushed the German Bond strip to its session low, albeit still in limited range.
  • The German 10yr Bund saw its best single hourly move since the last US Core PCE and the FOMC, gaining 97 ticks throughout Yesterday's afternoon session.
  • Yesterday's high of 131.63 has held so far today, printed a 131.61 high.
  • Some Technical will look at 131.71 for the next immediate resistance, but better is seen at 131.91, the 23.6% retracement of the massive 690 ticks fall (from the 2nd Dec high).
  • A pullback down to 130.70 would represent a US CPI reversal.
  • The German final CPI was inline, just a 1 tenth higher revision on the MoM reading, the UK Data was a slight miss, but the German strip has seen selling interest on the Cash open.
  • Italy final CPI is the only other release out of Europe, as such, focus today is on the US IJC and Retail Sales.
  • ECB will also release its account of the last meeting.
  • SUPPLY: Spain 5, 12s, 25s.
  • SYNDICATION: Ireland 30yr.
  • SPEAKERS: ECB Panetta.
