US SWAPS
US SWAPS: *** Spds running mostly tighter, 2Y balanced at even while rest of
curve extends inversion, ignoring Tsy bounce off lows. Rather limited flow
includes receiver in 2s around 1.520-.529%, receivers in 3s and 4s, payer in
10s. TD Securities offers up plausible opinion on inversion extension that the
Treasury bringing up ultra-long debt past what's currently available is their
attempt at steepening yld curves after 2Y10Y inverted for first time in over 12
years last couple weeks. TD is in line w/other researchers that demand for new
ultr-long issues is limited, while "any issuance will come cheap to the curve
and tighten swap spreads. Any knee-jerk steepening should be overshadowed by
macro fundamentals and Fed policy."
